[ENTERED  AT  THE  PHILADELPHIA  POST  OFFICE  AS  SECOND-CLASS  MATTER.] 


VOL.  V.— No.  1.  PHILADELPHIA,  WEDNESDAY,  JANUARY  8,  1890.  PRICE  15  CENTS. 


Mr.  ADVERTISER,  a  few  words  if  you  please: 

In  making  up  your  list  of  papers  in  which  you  will  place  your  advertisements  for  1890, 
you  want  at  least  an  assurance  of  probable  return  in  the  way  of  profits,  to  justify  the  ex¬ 
pense,  this  holds  good,  whether  as  Manufacturer,  Dealer  or  Contractor ;  you  advertise  to 
catch  those  WHO  MUST  BUY. 

The  great  army  of  buyers  for  American  products,  are  not  Dealers,  by  any  means. 
Their  relations  to  the  wares  sold,  is  that  of  distribution  only.  The  Dealer  aims  to  sell  the 
goods  that  sell  readily;  there  is  little  sentiment  in  the  question  with  him.  To  popularize 
his  wares  should  be  the  objective  point  of  every  advertiser.  The  Dealer  soon  tires  of  goods 
that  find  no  sale,  dead  stock,  soon  becomes  a  dead-loss.  It  is  better  that  the  demand 
should  push  the  Manufacturer,  than  the  Manufacturer  should  push  the  Dealer. 

Bartlett,  the  manufacturer  of  “Crumbs  of  Comfort,”  says:  that  through  advertising 
he  can  force  the  people  into  stores  to  buy  anything  he  desires  to  sell  them.  It  is  a  simple 
question  as  to  whether  the  profit  will  justify  the  expense. 

During  1890,  there  will  be  many  thousand  new  buildings  erected  in  Philadelphia, 
Pennsylvania,  New  Jersey,  Maryland,  Delaware  and  Washington,  D.  C.,  which  will  be  re¬ 
ported  in  the  way  of  advance  news  in  the  columns  of  this  journal.  No  proper  estimate  can 
now  be  made  of  the  cost  of  the  Building  Material,  including  Heating  Apparatus,  Boilers, 
Pumps,  Engines,  Machinery,  Elevators,  Electric  Work,  Decorations,  Glass  and  all  other 
accessories  that  must  enter  into  the  construction  and  completion  of  these  buildings,  repre¬ 
senting  Factories,  Ware-houses,  Churches,  School  Houses,  Dwellings,  &c.,  &c.,  but  it  will 
certainly  aggregate  many  millions  of  dollars. 

We  want  your  advertisement  for  1890,  we  want  to  place  it  in  the  hands  of  every  one 
of  these  persons  reported  in  our  columns  weekly,  as  going  to  build,  in  the  above  sections, 
this  includes  of  course,  persons  obtaining  building  permits  in  Philadelphia  and  Camden,  it 
also  includes  our  Lot  buyers  and  Miscellaneous  buHders. 

If  your  advertisement  is  read  by  this  army  of  buyers  at  a  time  when  their  minds  are 
full  of  the  question  of  selection  is  it  not  even  more  than  probable,  that  at  least  a  fair  per¬ 
centage  of  them  will  be  attracted  by  it  and  become  purchasers  of  your  goods  ?  We  think 
so,  and  we  are  sure  that  after  you  have  tried  it  for  a  year,  you  will  also  think  so. 

We  will  send  advertising  rates  to  all  who  want  them.

PHILADELPHIA,  WED’Y.  JAN.  8,  1890. 


For  the  convenience  of  members  of  the 
Master  Builders’  Exchange,  we  have  secured 
Box  No.  199  at  that  place,  where  any  communi¬ 
cations  for  publication  may  be  left. 


The  Warden  apartment  house,  $380,000  and 
the  Hotel  Metropole,  estimated  to  cost  $1,000,  - 
000,  are  not  included  in  our  summary  for  1889. 


There  is,  probably,  no  city  in  America  that 
can  show  more  than  one-third  of  the  building 
operations  of  Philadelphia,  for  1889. 


The  annual  report  of  the  Brooklyn,  L.  I-, 
Building  Commissioners,  shows  that  5,084  new 
buildings  were  erected  in 'that  city  during  1889, 
at  a  cost  of  $25,679,405,  this  is  an  increase  of  858 
new  building  over  1888,  representing  an  increase 
in  expenditures  of  $4,201,  580  over  the  same 
year.  _ _ 

In  the  report  of  the  New  York  Acqueduct 
Board  for  1889,  the  statement  of  expenditures 
up  to  December  1st,  elicit  some  singular  facts, 
among  which  is  the  statement  that  the  amount 
allowed  for  land  damages  was  #50,482.12,  while 
the  expenses  of  the  Commissioners  who  ap¬ 
praised  the  damages  were  #1,406,611.85,  or 
nearly  twenty-eight  times  more  than  the  value 
of  the  land  appraised.  Of  course,  New  York 
can  afford  to  employ  public  servants,  with  luxu¬ 
rious  tastes  and  extravagant  ideas  of  indirect 
compensation,  but  it  would  have  been  much 
cheaper  for  New  Yorkers,  it  every  old  farmer, 
whose  land  was  taken,  had  been  paid  his  own 
price  without  the  formality  of  appraisement. 

IT  is  stated  that  the  applications  for  apart- 
mehts  in  the  new  apartment  house,  to  be  erected 


by  Mr.  W.  G.  Warden,  at  Eleventh  and  Pine 
streets  are  already  so  large  in  number  as  to 
guarantee  the  success  of  the  building  as  an  in¬ 
vestment.  This  statement,  if  correct,  verifies 
our  belief,  often  expressed  in  these  columns,  that 
there  was  not  only  a  great  necessity  for  apart¬ 
ment  as  well  as  small  houses  in  the  central 
part  of  the  city,  but  that  many  old  properties, 
now  entirely  too  dilapidated  to  command  the 
attention  of  a  desirable  class  of  tenants,  could 
be  renovated  at  small  cost,  and  made  to  pay  a 
handsome  interest  on  the  investment  In  fact, 
we  believe  that  there  are  many  properties  on 
such  streets  as  Wood  and  Locust  streets  that 
could  not  only  be  redeemed,  but  could  be  so 
altered  and  reconstructed,  as  to  appearances,  as 
to  command  the  attention  of  the  better  class  of 
tenants  at  double  the  rent  they  now  command. 


separate  record,  is  greatly  exaggerated,  or  to 
quote  the  words  of  a  prominent  real  estate  man 
of  this  city  who  said  that  “  outside  of  the  build¬ 
ers,  I  do  not  believe  that  the  real  estate  held  in 
true  ownership  in  this  city  is  now  bearing  a 
mortgage  of  over  ten  per  cent.”  At  all  events, 
without  constant  access  to  the  full  record  of 
mortgages,  ours  is  the  best  data  obtainable. 

From  our  summary  it  is  safe  to  conclude,  that 
the  people  will  continue  to  purchase  real  estate 
,  for  some  time  to  come,  and  we  regard  the  out 
look  for  1890  sufficiently  encouraging  to  justify 
a  liberal  amount  of  building.  The  two  greatest 
impediments  that  will  certainly  present  them¬ 
selves  will  be  the  increased  price  of  land  and  the 
failure  of  our  city  authorities  to  advance  street 
improvements  in  keeping  with  the  rapid  pace  of 
our  builders. 


WE  present  to  our  readers  in  this  issue  an  in¬ 
teresting  summary  of  the  building  and  real  es¬ 
tate  business  of  the  City  of  Philadelphia  for  1889. 
The  magnitude  of  the  construction  work  al¬ 
though  sufficiently  large  to  call  forth  expres¬ 
sions  of  surprise  from  most  of  our  readers,  does 
not,  in  our  opinion,  compare  in  importance  with 
the  absolutely  astonishing  magnificence  of  the 
eighty  millions  of  dollars  representing  the  real 
estate  transactions  for  the  year.  The  man  who 
would  have  predicted  such  results  at  the  begin¬ 
ning  of  1889,  would  have  been  regarded  as  an 
idiot,  and  yet  the  amount,  as  large  as  it  seems, 
does  not  by  any  means  represent  the  full  value 
of  the  15,945  conveyances  made,  for  it  does  not 
include  the  value  of  hundreds  of  properties  that 
were  transferred  during  the  year  for  merely 
nominal  consideration,  and  which  were  so  re¬ 
ported  in  our  weekly  list  of  conveyances  from 
which  our  summary  is  made.  When  it  is  con¬ 
sidered  that  the  great  volume  of  business  done 
in  1888,  amounting  to  $62,663,201.87,  was  re. 
garded  by  many  as  largely  forced,  or  to  use  the 
words  of  many,  “  was  the  result  of  a  pernicious 
system  of  instalment  mortgages,”  but  which 
idea  we  at  the  time  succeeded  in  refuting  by 
showing  that  the  mortgage  incumbrance  on 
the  entire  amount  was  but  19. 1-5  per  cent.  How 
much  more  astonishing  to  those  people  must 
seem  the  $80,225,270.88  representing  the  busi. 
ness  of  1889,  bearing  a  mortgage  incumbrance 
of  only  21.9.  It  may  be  justly  argued  that  the 
mortgages  represented  in  the  deeds  of  convey¬ 
ances  do  not  represent  the  full  amount  of  the 
mortgage  incumbrance.  This  is  doubtless  true, 
so  far  as  builders  transfers  are  concerned,  but 
we  do  not  think  it  is  the  case  to  any  great  extent 
where  property  is  purchased  for  investment,  and 
we  believe  that  the  amount  of  incumbrance  not 
mentioned  in  the  convevancesyjtfid  subject  to

The  Cedar  Hollow  Lime  Company,  900  Jeffer¬ 
son  street,  this  city,  has  graced  our  office  walls 
with  its  calender  for  1890.  For  attractive  and 
artistic  calenders  the  Cedar  Hollow  folks  are 
far  ahead  this  year,  as  this  one  is  richer  in 
coloring  and  better  as  to  finish  than  any  we 
have  seen.  It  i6  highly  embossed,  the  scene 
representing  old  Santa  Claus  seated  beneath  a 
snow-ladened  tree,  his  well-stored  basket  of  rich 
gifts  beside  him.  Two  pretty  children  richly 
dressed,  patiently  listening  to  the  old  man’s 
usual  admonitions  and  good  cheer,  with  a 
country  home  in  the  distance,  complete  the 
scene. 

The  business  of  the  company  has  been 
msually  heavy,  its  output  of  lime  for  1889 
having  been  heavier  than  ever  before. 


WE  are  in  receipt  of  a  calender  from  the  Law¬ 
rence  Cement  Company,  which  is  a  “thing  of 
beauty,”  and  a  model  of  good  taste  and  artistic 
treatment.  ‘‘Rich,  but  not  gaudy,”  this  beau¬ 
tiful  souvenir  satisfies  the  eye,  besides  being 
highly  useful  both  in  the  office  and  in  the  home. 


A  Window  Glass  Combination. 

At  Columbus,  Ohio,  a  meeting  of  the  window 
glass  manufacturers  of  Ohio  and  Indiana  was 
held  December  31,  1889,  the  prices  that  were 
named  at  Findley,  on  November  12,  1889, -of 
eighty  and  five  per  cent  off  on  single  strength, 
and  eighty  aud  ten  per  cent,  off  on  double 
strength  glass,  were  reaffirmed.  They  also 
allied  themselves  to  a  syndicate  with  a  capital 
stock  of  $800,000,  which  will  take  the  glass  of 
the  weaker  manufacturers,  when  they  would 
otherwise  have  to  place  it  upon  the  market 
during  the  months  of  January,  February,  March 
and  April  at  a  discount  lower  than  named  by 
the  association.  The  Pittsburg,  Pa.,  manufac¬ 
turers,  the  Chambers,  M  cKee  Company  and  the 
United  Window  Glass  Company,  will  co-ope¬ 
rate  in  the  movement.  Thomas  F.  Hart,  of 
Muncy,  Ind.,  was  elected  president,  and  U.  G. 
Baker,  of  Findley,  Ohio,  secretary  and  treasurer 
of  the  association.

The  Real  Estate  Record’s  Predictions 
More  than  Fulfilled. 


As  is  our  custom,  we  herewith  present  our 
|  annual  statement,  showing  the  building  opera¬ 
tions  in  this  city  for  the  twelve  months  of  1889. 
And  although  the  present  report  cannot  be 
!  justly  regarded  as  more  than  an  auxiliary  to  our 
j  very  elaborate  report  that  appeared  in  our  issue 
of  November  6th,  1889,  which  was  intended  to 
cover  the  building  season  for  the  year  ending 
I  October  31st,  yet  it  will  be  found  sufficiently 
!  succinct  to  afford  such  information  as  those  most  | 
|  interested  require. 

j  The  total  number  of  two-story  dwellings  j 
erected  during  the  year  was  7,450,  against  which 
we  place  the  total  number  erected  during  the 
j  year  1888  as  5,987.  showing  an  excess  of  two- 
story  dwelling  houses  over  the  previous  year  of 
!  1,463. 

The  total  number  of  three-story  dwellings  I 
erected  during  1889  was  1,992,  against  which  we 
place  the  total  for  1888  of  1,428,  showing  an  ex¬ 
cess  over  1888  of  564. 

A  noticeable  feature  of  this  year’s  building  has 
1  been  the  considerable  increase  of  four-story 
j  dwellings.  This  is  somewhat  singular,  from  the 
fact  that  so  much  significance  of  late  years  has 
been  given  to  small  houses  for  investment.  Of 
course  the  number  of  four-story  dwellings 
!  erected  is  not  so  great  as  to  even  cause  an  ex¬ 
pression  of  surprise,  yet  as  small  as  the  number 
is,  it  certainly  indicates  that  there  are  more  per¬ 
sons  who  feel  justified  from  a  business  stand¬ 
point  to  erect  four  story  houses  than  there  were 
last  year.  The  figures  for  four-story  dwellings 
for  1889  are  34  against  14  for  1888 

The  months  of  November  and  December  1889 
were,  according  to  the  figures,  particularly  ad¬ 
vantageous  for  building  purposes  when  com¬ 
pared  with  the  same  months  of  1888,  as  the  fig¬ 
ures  show  that  during  these  months  in  1889  2,- 
527  new  buildings  were  commenced  against  539 
for  the  same  months  of  1888. 

The  industrial  branches  for  which  new  build¬ 
ings  were  erected  during  1889  show  a  consider¬ 
able  increase  over  1888,  although  in  some  re¬ 
spects  the  increase  is  but  a  trifle  over  the  show¬ 
ing  for  1887.  The  item  of  factory  buildings 
shows  that  73  were  erected  during  1887,  42  dur¬ 
ing  1888  and  77  during  1889  Of  course  the 
minor  industries  are  represented  by  the  erection 
of  a  large  number  of  buildings,  shops  and  found¬ 
ries  showing  14  for  1887,  55  for  1888  and  75  for 
1889. 

As  to  large  office  buildings,  the  year  does  not 
present  any  very  noticeable  feature,  as  but  4  are 
included  in  the  report  for  1889,  whereas  1888  em¬ 
braced  12  large  office  buildings. 

As  to  the  sales  of  real  estate  we  firmly  believe 
that  considerably  more  houses  were  sold  during 
!  1889  than  were  erected.  It  will  be  noticed  that 
the  number  of  transfers  amounted  to  15,945, 
i  many  of  these  transfers  represented  consider- 
ably  more  than  ’  a  single  property,  to  be 


sure  also,  many  of  them  were  for  vacant  lots, 
but  if  we  allow  5,000  of  the  number  for  vacant 
lots,  and  still  a  fair  per  centage  for  properties 
that  changed  hands  more  than  once  during  the 
year,  the  remainder  will  more  than  equal  the 
number  of  new  buildings  erected,  when  proper 
consideration  is  given  to  the  actual  number  of 
buildings  that  were  included  in  the  transfers. 

The  15,945  transfers  represented  $80,225,270.- 
88,  against  which  we  place  the  sales  for  1888, 
which  amounted  to  12,679  transfers,  amounting 
to  $62,663,201.87. 

The  incumbrances  on  the  real  estate  sold  dur¬ 
ing  1889,  represented  $17, 618, 932. 46  mortgage 
incumbrance,  or  21.9  per  cent,  while  the  ground 
rent  incumbrance  represents  $576,175.97,  which 
on  a  basis  of  six  per  cent,  amounts  to  $9,602,- 
932.83.  It  will  be  seen  that  the  total  amount  of 
mortgage  and  ground  rent  incumbrance  resting 
upon  the  property  conveyed  during  1889,  amounts 
to  $27,221,865.29,  or  33.9  per  cent. 

The  sales  of  real  property  at  auction  for  1889 
amounted  to  $3,923,360.82,  which  was  incum¬ 
bered  to  the  amount  of  $492,909.43,  while  the 
sales  of  1888,  amounted  to  $3,890,390.51,  bearing 
an  incumbrance  of  #540,923.22. 

The  following  carefully  prepared  tables  will 
prove  of  great  interest,  as  they  are  based  on  our 
own  data,  carefully  compiled  and  entered  as  a 
matter  of  record  in  our  own  office  weekly  :

PHILADELPHIA,  WED’Y.  JAN.  15,  1890. 


For  the  convenience  of  members  of  the 
Master  Builders’  Exchange,  we  have  secured 
Box  No.  199  at  that  place,  where  any  communi¬ 
cations  for  publication  may  be  left. 


What’s  the  matter  with  John  Wanamaker  for 
Governor  of  this  grand  old  Commonwealth? 
said  a  prominent  real  estate  man  this  week. 
The  Quay  and  Magee  factions  are  pulling 
and  hauling  away  until  the  people  are  tired  read¬ 
ing  about  it.  Wanamaker  is  clean,  capable  and 
level  headed,  and  his  naming  such  a  man  as 
John  Fields  for  Postmaster  of  Philadelphia,  and 
sticking  to  him  through  thick  and  thin,  is  enough 
in  itself  to  commend  him  to  every  decent  voter 
in  the  State. 


Mayor  Fitter  has  expressed  considerable 
indignation  against  the  treatment  ordinary 
every-day  people  receive  in  the  horse  cars,  al 
though  he  admits  that  his  experience  is  ex. 
tremely  limited.  Why  not,  Mr.  Mayor,  try  the 
Traction  Company’s  cars  on  Market  street,  and 
get  robbed  out  of  your  car  fare  a  half  dozen 
times  and  see  how  you  like  it-  Perhaps,  though, 
you  would  be  better  able  to  appreciate  the  ex¬ 
perience  if  you  were  a  poor  man  and  bad  to  foot 
it  home  on  a  wet  night  after  a  hard  day’s  work. 
The  Mayor  of  a  great  city  can  only  discover  the 
annoyances  and  sufferings  of  a  patient  people 
by  a  little  practical  experience.  There  is  much, 
Mr.  Mayor,  that  you  do  not  know  about  Phila¬ 
delphia  and  Philadelphians,  but  which  you 
ought  to  know  and  could  know  without  much 
effort.  _  _ 

Postmaster  General  Wanamaker’s  Report. 

To  do  justice  to  a  document  of  so  much  pub¬ 
lic  importance  as  the  first  annual  report  of  the 


Postmaster  General,  would  require  more  space 
than  this  Journal  can  afford. 

Of  course,  Philadelphians  have  looked  for¬ 
ward  to  the  presentation  of  Mr.  Wanamaker’s 
report  with  greater  interest  than  could  be  ex¬ 
pected  from  the  citizens  of  any  other  section  of 
the  country.  They  were,  naturally  enough, 
anxious  to  see  for  themselves  just  what  their 
townsman,  fresh  from  his  dry  goods  store, 
without  the  usual  political  schooling  of  his  pre¬ 
decessors,  had  to  say  from  his  highly  executive 
position,  about  the  most  important  branch  of 
the  public  service,  and  those  who,  from  their 
knowledge  of  the  man,  expected  much,  have 
certainly  no  reason  to  be  disappointed. 

The  document  itself  is  a  refreshing  novelty. 

It  is  as  crisp  as  a  new  bank  note. 

It  contains  more  salient  points  to  the  page 
than  any  report  of  a  departmental  head  that 
we  have  ever  read. 

We  have  only  room  to  quote  a  few  pointed 
paragraphs.  Speaking  of  the  postal  service,  Mr. 
Waaamaker  says : 

*  *  *  “  Nevertheless,  the  postal  service  is 

not  a  money-making  enterprise.  It  is  not  in¬ 
tended  to  be.  It  is  a  mistake  to  expect  it  to  be 
self-sustaining  until  it  is  fully  perfected. 

“The  post  office  is  the  visible  form  of  the 
Federal  Government  to  every  community  and 
to  every  citizen.  Its  hand  is  the  only  one  that 
touches  the  local  life,  the  social  interests,  and 
business  concern  of  every  neighborhood  It 
brings  the  Government  to  every  door  in  the 
land  acd  makes  it  the  ready  and  faithful  servitor 
of  every  interest  of  commerce  and  society.  The 
people,  from  whom  alone  this  all  pervading 
agency  springs  into  action,  and  by  whose  en¬ 
couragement  alone  it  can  supply  their  jealous 
needs,  simply  want  the  system  administered 
with  such  efficiency  and  economy  that  it  shall 
offer  them  more  and  more  accommodations  and 
tax  them  less  and  less.  The  only  method  I  can 
suggest  by  which  all  their  desires  may  be  grati¬ 
fied,  is  not  merely  to  talk  about  the  application 
of  business  principles  to  the  Department  ;  it  is 
really  to  apply  them.  It  is  not  to  work  in  poor 
quarters  ;  it  is  not  to  transport  mails  afoot  when 
they  should  go  in  railroad  trains  ;  it  is  not  to 
tolerate  disloyal  or  listless  employees  if  better 
ones  can  be  had  ;  it  is  not,  finally,  to  keep  un¬ 
willingly  abreast  of  the  the  times.  It  is  always 
to  lead. the  times,’’ 

Among  other  recommendations  he  suggests 
the  appointment  of  a  permanent  officer  as  Con¬ 
troller  or  General  Secretary  as  “no  great  busi¬ 
ness  establishment  can  succeed  that  changes  its 
principal  officer  once  in  fifteen  months.  To  en¬ 
list  and  retain  the  services  of  a  man  of  the  ability 
required,  would  necessitate  the  payment  of  a 
large  salary.  He  should  be  appointed  by  the 
President  for  ten  years,  subject  to  removal  at 
any  time  if  not  equal  to  the  work,” 

He  suggests  twenty-six  postal  districts  accord¬ 
ing  to  population  and  territory  ;  postmasters  to 
be  graded  into  three  classes.  The  establish¬ 
ment  of  a  Model  Postoffice  in  Washington,  to 
become  the  High  School  for  postmasters  all  over 


the  country,  to  be  under  the  charge  of  a  Fifth 
Postmaster  General,  who  is  also  to  have  charge 
of  the  educational  and  civil  service  work  of  the 
entire  service. 

He  suggests  the  utilization  of  every  known 
scientific  or  mechanical  means  to  expedite  the 
work  of  the  Department ;  pneumatic  tubes,  in 
cities  or  towns  for  more  rapid  collection  and 
distribution. 

“  The  venerable  clerk  who  is  always  with  us, 
faithful  to  tradition  and  proudest  of  all  in  re¬ 
membering  precedents,  should  not  worry  and 
retard  a  progressive  Department  in  this  pro¬ 
gressive  age  by  making  a  wall  of  an  opinion 
delivered  in  1823  or  citing  a  precedent  that  gov¬ 
erned  in  1848.  And  especially  should  the  postal 
service  utilize  in  this  advanced  time  of  the 
world  everything  that  can  make  the  mails  anti¬ 
cipate  the  wishes  and  expectations  of  the  people. 
The  one  man  who  should  be  expected  to  ascertain 
and  apply  to  the  postal  service  all  possible  better 
agents,  whether  they  be  thus  employed  in  the 
business  world  or  developed  in  science,  is  the 
Postmaster  General,  who,  under  the  present 
methods  is  allowed  no  time  for  studying  such 
great  questions  or  of  dealing  with  anything 
more  than  the  passing  subjects  of  every  day,” 

He  suggests  the  erection  of  a  well-planned 
building  in  Washington,  and  the  grouping 
together  of  all  the  post  office  business  in  that 
city. 

He  states  that  the  total  number  of  employees 
in  the  postal  service  is  150,935. 

He  handles  the  Western  Union  Telegraph 
Company  without  gloves.  He  wants  the  people 
to  have  the  benefit  of  the  telegraphic  service  at 
popular  rates,  and  his  aim  is  to  have  the  tele¬ 
graph  companies  work  as  cheaply  for  the  Gov- 
ernmeut  as  lor  other  people.  He  recommends 
the  retirement  of  superannuated  clerks,  worn 
out  in  the  service,  with  a  year’s  pay.  He  re¬ 
gards  one  cent  postage  as  an  easy  possibility  of 
the  near  future.  He  places  the  total  net  reve¬ 
nue  of  the  Department,  for  the  fiscal  year  end¬ 
ing  June  30,  1889,  at  #56,148,014.92,  expendi¬ 
tures  at  #62,498,198.35,  showing  a  deficit  for  the 
year  of  #6,350,183.43. 


The  fire  loss  in  Philadelphia,  according  to 
Chief  Cantlin,  of  the  Fire  Department,  is  not  as 
large  as  for  several  years  previous.  This  is  due, 
so  he  says,  to  the  increased  number  of  engines 
and  the  general  excellency  of  the  department. 
The  total  loss  by  fire  in  Philadelphia,  is  esti¬ 
mated  at  #1,6x3,776,  and  the  number  of  alarms 
were  925. 

The  Guarantee  Tru:t  and  Safe  Deposit 
Company. 

The  assets  and  liabilities  of  a  company  is  its 
true  measure  of  strength  after  all.  Among  the 
older  companies,  the  Guarantee  Trust  and  Safe 
Deposit. Company,  of  this  city,  not  only  merits  a 
place,  from  its  high  financial  standing,  at  the 
top,  but  so  high  up  in  this  scale  of  measurement 
that  few  over-top  it.  The  statement  of  this 
company  appears  in  this  issue.  It  will  be  read 
with  interest,  from  the  fact  that  it  represents 
continued  growth  and  popularity,  and  close 
business  management  on  the  part  of  its  officers. 
The  assets  of  the  company  are  given  as  #7,754,- 
114.54.

THE^RECORD  AND  GUIDE. 


Two  hundred  and  eighty-four  permits  were  is¬ 
sued  by  the  City  of  Erie,  Erie  Co.,  Pa.,  during 
1889,  representing  an  outlay  of  over  $600,000. 
The  largest  operation  was  the  High  School, 
which  cost  $1 1 2,000,  and  of  the  284  permits,  212 
were  for  dwellings,  mostly  of  a  moderate  cost.

Two  hundred  and  fortv-eight  architects  and 
engineers  are  engaged  in  designing  plans  for  the 
tower  which  Sir  Edward  Watkin  purposes  to 
erect  on  the  banks  of  the  Thames  Of  these 
architects  and  engineers,  sixteen  are  Americans 
and  Canadians,  sixteen  Frenchmen,  and  the 
balance  Englishmen. 


The  Equitable  Trust  Company,  624  Chestnut 
street,  has  opened  its  doors  to  the  public  under 
most  favorable  auspices,  having  upon  its  list  of 
patrons  many  of  our  most  wealthy  and  trust¬ 
worthy  citizens.  The  confidence  thus  reposed 
in  the  chosen  officers  of  the  executive  board 
being  of  a  satisfactory  character,  cannot  bui 
enhance  the  future  prospects  of  the  organization. 
Hon.  William  F.  Harrity,  ex- Postmaster,  the 
president;  Geo.  M.  Dallas,  Daniel  Donovan, 
vice  presidents,  and  Frank  J.  Johann,  secretary 
and  treasurer,  are  gentlemen  so  well  known  to 
the  financial  and  business  community,  as  to  be 
a  sure  guarantee  of  the  future  welfare  of  this 
institution. 


The  Land,  Title  and  Trust  Company. 

Athough,  what  might  be  called  one  of  the 
younger  companies,  the  statement  made  on  Janu¬ 
ary  2,  1890,  by  the  Land,  Title  and  Trust  Com¬ 
pany,  whose  place  of  business  is  608  Chestuul 
street,  places  it  at  once  in  the  first  rank  among 
the  many  well-known  strong  institutions  of  a  like 
character,  with  which  this  city  abounds.  This 
is  not  the  result  of  mere  luck  or  fortunate  in¬ 
vestments,  but  the  well-merited  success  that 
comes  sooner  or  later,  not  only  to  the  individual, 
but  to  the  institution,  that  brings  to  bear  on 
the  management  of  its  affairs  the  same  business 
integrity  and  untiring  industry  which  mark  the 
successful  business  man  in  what  ever  occupa¬ 
tion  he  may  engage.  The  assets  of  the  com¬ 
pany  have  reached  the  handsome  proportions  of 
$2,970,685.04.

The  American  Fire  Insurance  Company. 

Notwithstanding  the  severe  fire  losses  that 
have  marked  the  last  year,  the  statement  of  the 
American  Fire  Insurance  Company,  308  and  310 
Walnut  street,  for  the  year  1890,  is  one  calcu¬ 
lated  to  give  satisfaction,  both  to  the  Company 
and  to  its  patrons.  The  business  shows  a  large 
increase  over  that  of  last  year,  and  an  accumula¬ 
tion  to  the  Company’s  fund  of  $141,753  76,  be. 
sides  which  the  assets  show  a  cash  capital,  an 
Insurance  Reserve  Fund  and  a  net  surplus  reach 
ing  the  handsome  sum  of  $2,642,669  97.  This 
statement  is  one  of  the  best  guarantees  that 
could  possibly  be  offered,  both  for  the  security 
of  its  patrons  and  for  the  fidelity  and  good  busi¬ 
ness  management  of  the  officers  of  the  Com¬ 
pany,  and  insures  the  American  Fire  Company 
a  first  class  standing  in  the  insurance  organi¬ 
zations  of  the  United  States. 


The  Northern  Savings  Fund,  Safe  Deposit 
and  Trust  Company. 

The  eighteenth  annual  statement  of  the  North¬ 
ern  Saving  Fund  and  Safe  Deposit  Company, 
which  appears  in  our  issue  of  this  week,  is  one 
•calculated  to  inspire  confidence  on  the  part  of 
the  public  in  such  institutions.  There  is,  per¬ 
haps,  no  city  in  the  United  States  which,  accord¬ 
ing  to  its  population,  supports  as  many  institu¬ 
tions  of  a  like  nature  as  Philadelphia.  This  is 
doubtless  due  to  a  number  of  reasons,  prominent 
among  which  are  the  well  known  frugality  and 
saving  propensiites  of  the  people  as  a  class,  but 
the  main  factor  in  bringing  about  this  happy  re¬ 


sult  is,  after  all,  the  confidence  inspired  in  the 
minds  of  the  people  by  the  strict  business  meth¬ 
ods  and  faithful  performance  of  duty  on  the  part 
of  such  companies  as  the  above,  which  shows  at 
the  beginning  of  the  new  year  the  grand  total  of 
assets  of  $3,134,742.75. 


The  fourth  annual  convention  of  the  Master 
Builders  of  the  United  States  will  be  held  at  St. 
Paul,  Minn.,  January  27,  28,  29,  1890.  A  major¬ 
ity  of  the  Eastern  delegates,  inclusive  of  the 
New  York  delegation,  will  pass  through  Phila¬ 
delphia  on  the  twenty-fifth  instant,  and  be  joined 
at  the  B.  &  O.  Railroad  depot,  Twenty-fourth 
and  Chestnut  streets,  by  the  delegation  from  this 
city,  which  will  be  composed  of  the  following 
members  of  the  Philadelphia  Builders’Exchauge : 
William  Harkness,  Jr.,  Delegate-at  Large,  Dele¬ 
gates,  Stacy  Reeves,  Wm.  H.  Albertson.  David 
A.  Woelpper,  Peter  Gray,  F.  M.  Harris,  W.  S 
McGinley :  Alternates,  C.  G.  Wetter,  Wm.  B. 
Irvin,  Wm.  B.  Carlisle,  David  A.  Watts,  Wm. 
Conway  and  U.  Howell  Rea.  Special  arrange¬ 
ments  have  been  made  for  the  trip,  which  being 
of  a  National  character  will  undoubtedly  prove 
of  general  interest  to  the  building  fraternity,  and 
the  legislation  rules  and  laws  adopted,  place  the 
building  interests  of  ,the  Nation  upon  a  higher 
plane  of  security  than  they  have  heretofore  en¬ 
joyed.  The  deliberations  of  the  last  National 
convention  held  in  this  city  in  February  last  , 
were  remarkable  for  the  ability  displayed  in  de¬ 
bate,  as  well  as  the  general  dispatch  of  the  vast 
amount  of  business  transacted,  and  general  sat¬ 
isfaction  rendered  by  the  various  committees. 
The  interests  of  both  the  builder  and  the  client 
are  of  such  vital  importance  that  much  good 
may  be  accomplished  if  the  wiser  judgments  of 
these  annual  meetings  are  allowed  to  prevail, 
and  equity,  justice  and  integrity  be  their  guiding 
watch  word.  This  we  know  will  always  be  the 
result  where  there  may  be  a  convocation  of  such 
men  as  compose  the  Master  Builders  of  the 
United  States.

Proprietor  of  Phila.  “Record.’* 


PHILADELPHIA,  WED’Y.  JAN.  22,  1890. 


For  the  convenience  of  members  of  the 
Master  Builders’  Exchange,  we  have  secured 
Box  No.  199  at  that  place,  where  any  communi¬ 
cations  for  publication  may  be  left. 

It  is  estimated  that  as  a  result  of  the  building 
boom  of  1889,  new  fire  risks  to  the  amount  of 
twenty-five  millions  were  placed  on  Philadel¬ 
phia  properties  alone. 


The  report  of  building  operations  in  Pittsburg 
for  the  year  1889,  shows  a  gratifying  increase  in 
matters  balonging  to  real  estate.  The  buildings 
erected  included  many  handsome  structures,  but 
there  was  a  noticeable  increase  in  the  number 
of  medium  sized  dwellings,  suitable  for  people 
of  moderate  means.  According  to  the  Builders’ 
Gazette,  3,241  buildings  were  erected  in  1889,  as 
against  2,676  in  1888,  an  increase  of  565  build¬ 
ings.  Inspector  Brown,  at  City  Hall,  states  that 
at  least  $8,000,000  will  be  spent  in  building  op¬ 
erations  during  1890.  If  Allegheny  is  included, 
the  sum  will  reach  $10,000,000. 


The  total  amount  of  building  operations  for 
New  York  and  Brooklyn,  for  1889,  is  placed  at 
$95,000,000,  showing  a  gain  of  $25,000,000  over 
1888.  The  sale  of  real  estate  for  the  two  cities 
for  1889  amounts  to  $351,000,000,  against  $274,- 
000,000,  for  1888,  a  gain  of  £77, 000,000.  It  is 
claimed,  that  in  New  York,  the  building  opera¬ 
tions  for  1889,  amounted  to  nearly  $69,000,000, 
while,  according  to  the  report  of  the  Brooklyn 
Commissioners,  the  building  operations  for  the 
year,  in  that  city,  amounted  to  825,679,405,  this 
amount  added  to  $69,000,000,  the  amount 
claimed  for  New  York  city  alone,  would  bring 
the  total  of  the  two  cities  to  $94,679,405.  It  is 


also  claimed,  that  during  the  last  ten  years, 
New  York  has  erected  new  buildings  to  the 
amount  of  $491,000,000,  and  that  the  population 
is  now  1,600,000, 


IF  William  Charlton,  while  alive  and  in  his 
sane  mind,  had  realized  that  at  his  death  his  es_ 
tate  would  have  to  run  the  gauntlet  of  all  kinds 
of  professional  leeches,  that  would  attempt  to 
fasten  on  it  for  the  sake  of  the  blood  they  could 
suck  out  of  it,  he  would  have  certainly  specifi¬ 
cally  defined  by  will, just  what  should  have  been 
done  with  it  at  his  death.  The  change  that  has 
come  over  the  minds  of  men  in  their  feelings 
towards  the  wife  and  children  of  some  one,  who 
while  alive,  they  regarded  as  their  dear  and  hon¬ 
ored  friend,  compared  with  the  sentiment  that 
dominated  in  the  good  old  fashioned  times  when 
friendship  meant  something,  and  men  possessed 
too  much  manhood  to  try  to  bilk  widows  and 
orphans  on  pleas  of  exaggerated  services,  can  be 
explained  only  on  the  basis  of  growing  selfish¬ 
ness  and  deteriorated  manhood.  If  it  were  not 
for  the  Orphan’s  Court,  which  under  the  wise 
provisions  of  the  laws  of  this  commonwealth,  is 
permitted  to  adjudicate  the  claims  against  es. 
iates,  it  would  be  110  easy  matter  to  anticipate 
the  great  wrongs  that  might  be  committed.  As 
it  now  exists,  it  is  a  most  difficult  matter  for  the 
presiding  judge  to  thoroughly  sift  the  merits  of 
the  claimants.  An  hour  spent  in  an  Orphan’s 
Court,  will  be  found  immensely  instructive  to  a 
student  of  human  nature,  for  it  seems  that  there 
the  better  sentiments  of  human  nature  are  tem¬ 
porarily,  at  least,  subjugated  by  the  worse  pas¬ 
sions  of  avarice  and  greed,  too  often,  to  the  real 
detriment  of  the  widow  and  orphan. 


One  of  the  daintiest  calendars  of  the  year  has 
recently  been  issued  by  the  Guarantee,  Trust  and 
Safe  Deposit  Company.  It  shows  a  well-exe¬ 
cuted  and  tinted  cut  of  the  company’s  handsome 
building,  at  316,  318  and  320  Chestnut  strett, 
surrounded  by  separate  calendars  of  each  of  the 
twelve  months;  which,  in  turn,  are  decorated 
with  the  flower  suitable  to  each  month.  The 
whole  is  beautiful  ly  colored  and  indicates  plainly 
that  the  company,  besides  its  well-known  sub¬ 
stantial  qualities,  has  an  eye  for  the  beautiful. 
- - 

A  Good  Office  Calendar. 

The  Fire  Insurance  Company  of  the  County 
of  Philadelphia  has  issued  a  yearly  calendar, 
particularly  useful  for  office  purposes.  It  can 
be  read  without  spectacles,  which  is  a  conside¬ 
ration  too  often  ignored  by  the  calendar  maker 
In  this,  as  in  everything  else,  the  officers  of  the 
County  Fire  are  practical.  The  company  is  a 
strong  one,  and  its  active  business  manage¬ 
ment  and  reliability  commends  it  to  the  conside¬ 
ration  of  those  having  fire  risks  to  place. 


A  Sensible  Calendar. 

As  usual  at  this  time  of  the  year  the  new  crop 
of  calendars  is  coming  in,  they  are  of  all  sorts, 
sizes,  shapes  and  kinds,  and  many  of  them  can 
be  had  for  the  asking,  but  the  best  calendar  that 
comes  to  our  office  is  that  published  by  N.  W. 
Ayer  &  Son,  Newspaper  advertising  Agents, 
Philadelphia,  and  which  they  send,  post-paid  to 
any  address  on  receipt  of  25  cents. 

This  calendar  is  14x22  inches,  the  upper  por¬ 
tion  beiug  beautifully  printed  in  colors,  while 
the  monthly  sheets  are  printed  with  figures  so 
plain  that  they  can  be  easily  seen  at  a  distance. 
Although  the  calendar  is  an  advertisement  of 
their  ever-growing  business  it  is  at  the  same  time 
so  valuable  to  those  having  use  for  a  calendar 
that  year  by  year  the  sale  steadily  increases. 


The  Department  of  Public  Works,  presided 
over  by  Louis  Wagner,  is  pursuing  a  penny¬ 
wise  and  pound-foolish  policy  towards  those  in¬ 
terested  in  the  building  operations  within  the 
suburban  or  outlying  districts  of  this  city.  Many 
capitalists  and  investors  are  to-day  compelled  to 
pay  enormous  sums  of  money  in  taxes  upon 
property  that  must  at  the  same  time  perforce 
lay  idle  and  dormant  because  of  the  tardiness 
and  dictatorial  manner  in  which  the  money  ap¬ 
propriated  for  highways  is  doled  out,  instead  of 
opening  up,  grading  and  macadamizing  new 
avenues  and  streets,  laying  of  gas  and  water 
pipes,  and  doing  such  things  as  will  benefit 
those  who  would  improve  the  vacant  lots  and 
fields  owned  by  these  overburdened  taxpayers, 
the  money  is  absorbed  in  patching  up  streets 
that  are  almost  yearly  under  contract,  and  upon 
new  and  untried  experiments ;  worse  still,  frit¬ 
tered  away  upon  a  badly  demoralized  gas  de¬ 
partment,  whose  glimmering  and  flickering  rays 
are  not  a  fit  comparison  for  a  penny-dip  candle 
in  a  dark  well.  Wake  up,  Mr.  Wagner,  to  the 
wants  and  necessities  of  the  hour  ;  enlarge  your 
ideas  of  what  you  should  do,  and  how  to  do  it ; 
let  your  study  be  for  the  best  interests  of  those 
whom  you  should  serve,  and  heed  the  lesson  of 
wisdom,  that  he  who  would  be  great,  must  first 
deserve  the  honor. 


Removal. 

Davis  and  Harvey's  Real  Estate  and  Stock 

Department  removed  to 514  Walnut  Street. 

Benjamin  Franklin  adopted  as  a  maxim,  the 
statement  that  three  removals  were  equal  to  one 
fire.  Benjamin  might  have  been  correct  as  to 
the  times  in  which  he  lived,  but  the  progressive 
business  men  of  the  nineteenth  century  know 
well  enough  that  a  growing,  thrifty  business, 
soon  necessitates  greater  facilities  and  roomier 
quarters. 

Push  and  enterprise,  the  key-note  of  success 
in  these  days  of  great  possibilities,  will  soon 
make  the  old  store,  office  or  factory,  a  poor  apo¬ 
logy  for  the  requirements  of  a  truly  prosperous 
business,  and  remaining  at  the  “  old  stand  ”  be¬ 
comes  an  absurdity,  if  not  an  impossibility. 

It  seems  but  a  few  months  ago  that  the  old  auc¬ 
tion  firm  of  Davis  &  Harvey  announced  its  in¬ 
tention  to  add  a  real  estate  and  stock  depart¬ 
ment  to  the  other  branches  of  auction  business. 
The  new  department,  although  but  a  fledgeling, 
compared  with  that  of  some  of  the  other  auction

THE  RECORD  AND  GUIDE. 


houses,  has,  under  the  able  and  comprehensive 
management  of  Mr.  H.  T.  Davis,  grown  to  be  a 
formidable  competitor,  for  it  now  not  only  com¬ 
mands  a  large  share  of  that  special  branch  of  the 
auction  business,  but  such  a  share  as  to  justify 
a  change  of  location,  and  more  central  and  larger 
offices. 

With  a  well-earned  reputation  for  able  and 
capable  management  of  business  entrusted  to  it 
among  property  owners  and  trustees  of  estates, 
having  real  estate  to  sell,  with  also  the  well- 
earned  recognition  for  integrity  which  the  house 
itself  has  possessed  for  years,  the  leal  estate  de¬ 
partment  certainly  commences  the  new  year 
under  the  most  favorable  auspices. 

At  all  events,  the  public  can  rest  assured  that 
no  effort  will  be  spared  on  the  part  of  the  man 
ager,  to  give  entire  satisfaction  in  every  par¬ 
ticular,  but  also  to  justify  a  continuance  of  that 
patronage  and  confidence  the  department  has  re¬ 
ceived  since  its  inception. 

When  you  again  conclude  to  sell  real  estate  at 
auction,  give  Davis  &  Harvey  a  trial.

Washington,  from  Main  to  Leverington  avenue. 

The  Philadelphia  &  Reading  Railroad  Com¬ 
pany  will  erect  a  new  station  at  Wister  street, 
Philadelphia,  the  present  one  being  inadequate 
for  the  increase  of  traffic. 

A  new  church  building  is  soon  to  be  erected 
by  the  Hebron  Memorial  Church,  Twenty -fifth 
and  Thompson  streets.  Details  aud  further  in¬ 
formation  may  be  had  of  the  pastor  or  the  trus¬ 
tees. 

The  Luberg  Manufacturing  Company,  Fourth 
and  Commerce  streets,  having  purchased  a  plant 
outside  the  city  limits,  has  resolved  not  to  build

lin,  above  Vine  street. 

Francis  Berger  and  Annie  Davis,  of  Schuyl¬ 
kill  township,  Chester  Co.,  Pa  ,  have  purchased

every  modern  convenience,  including  electric- 
bells,  etc. 

W.  F.  Albrecht,  builder,  2341  N.  Twenty- 
ninth  street,  has  purchased  of  P  Collins,  twenty- 
one  lots  fronting  on  Clearfield,  Rosemont  and

The  Board  of  Surveyors  have  passed  a  resolu¬ 
tion  to  have  a  contiguous  line  upon  the  North 
side  of  Chestnut  street,  between  Ninth  aud 


Tenth,  of  sixty-one  feet  four  and  three-quarter 
inches,  which  in  any  event  will  only  affect  the 
three  properties  unaltered  at  the  N.  E-  corner 
Tenth  and  Chestnut  street. 

In  our  issue  of  December  25th,  1889,  we  noted 
the  prospective  purchase  of  the  property  of  E. 
H.  Butler,  Germantown,  by  the  Junior  German¬ 
town  Club,  and  the  alteration  of  the  same  by 
them.  The  transfer  has  just  been  made  and  the 
operation  will  now  be  considered  and  consum¬ 
mated,  as  noted  at  that  time. 

A  charter  has  been  granted  at  Harrisburg,  to 
the  Bryn  Mawr  Hotel  Company,  with  a  capital 
of  $300,000.  The  president  of  the  company  is 
Joseph  E.  Gillingham,  and  the  secretary  and 
treasurer  William  Righter  Fisher.  As  pre¬ 
viously  mentioned,  architects  are  now  at  work 
on  the  plans,  and  work  will  begin  early  in  the 
spring. 

John  G.  Ruff,  builder,  1925  Poplar  street,  has 
bought  of  John  E.  Faunce,  an  irregular  lot  of 
ground  on  Ridge  avenue,  at  the  corner  of 
Twenty-ninth  street,  and  will  soon  commence 
the  erection  of  a  fine  row  of  houses  thereon,  to

terior  with  all  modern  improvements.  Cost  of

The  hay  market  property  has  been  purchased 
by  Mr.  W.  A.  Newton,  through  his  Counsel, 
George  W.  Marter,  Esq  ,  Attorney-at-Law,  No. 
923  Spruce  street.  This  property  is  situated  in 
a  very  popular  section  of  our  chy,  and  has  three 
fronts,  one  on  Seventh  street,  front  427  feet,  one 
on  Oxford  street,  front  175  feet,  one  on  Mar¬ 
shall  street,  front  431  feet,  which  is  to  be  built 
up  in  the  spring,  with  fine  improvements. 

There  is  quite  a  strong  movement  among  the 
members  of  the  Church  of  St.  Chrysostom, 
Twenty-eighth  and  Susquehanna  avenue, 
towards  building  a  new  parish  building,  the 
present  structure  being  too  small  for  the  work. 
There  is  in  hands  of  the  treasurer  $2,000,  and 
$1,000  more  is  available  when  the  work  shall  be

Refers  with  permission  to  William  M.  Slngerly 
Proprietor  of  Pliila.  “Record.” 

PHILADELPHIA,  WED’Y.  FEB.  5,  1890. 

For  the  convenience  of  members  of  the 
Master  Builders’  Exchange,  we  have  secured 
Box  No.  199  a'  that  place,  where  any  communi¬ 
cations  for  publication  may  be  left. 


Baltimore  shows  a  falling  off  of  about  twelve 
per  cent  in  the  number  of  new  buildings  erected 
during  1889,  compared  with  1888.  The  figures 
are  1926  for  1889,  against  2188  for  1888. 

The  National  Association  of  Master  Builders’, 
at  its  convention  at  St.  Pauls,  Minn  ,  elected  the 
following  officers  for  the  year  :  President,  John 
J.  Tucker,  of  New  York  ;  First  Vice  President, 
Anthony  Ittner,  of  St.  Louis  ;  Secretary,  W.  H. 
Sayward,  of  Boston  ;  Treasurer,  Chas.  Tappen, 
of  Chicago. 


According  to  the  report  of  the  Baltimore 
Real  Estate  Exchange,  the  outlook  for  the  real 
estate  business  in  that  city  for  1890,  is  better 
than  ever  before,  as  there  are  about  $13,000,000 
of  capital  invested  in  city  stock  which  is  to  be 
redeemed  this  year.  As  good  paying  stocks 
are  very  high,  and  real  estate  in  that  city  is  ex¬ 
ceedingly  low  at  present,  it  is  reasoned  out  that 
much  of  this  released  capital  will  find  its  way 
into  real  estate  as  a  permanent  investment. 


The  Baltimore  Real  Estate  Exchange,  not  only 
flourishes,  but  it  in  no  unmistakable  terms  ex¬ 
presses  itself  in  favor  of  the  proposed  belt  line  rail¬ 
road  for  that  city.  In  its  fourth  annual  report  just 
issued,  it  says:  “Any  enterprise  which  promises 
as  much  as  this,  in  the  way  of  increasing  our 
railroad  and  freight  facilities  and  promoting 
rapid  transit,  deserves  and  should  receive  en¬ 
couragement  and  as  far  as  possible  should  be 
relieved  of  any  unreasonable  exactions.” 

The  fact  is,  the  self  same  tactics  are  being 
played  in  Baltimore  to  defeat  the  proposed  Belt 
Line  for  that  City  as  have  been  worked  advan¬ 


tageously  in  oppositon  to  the  project  in  Phila¬ 
delphia,  hut  like  our  own  City,  Baltimore  will 
yet  get  her  Belt  Line  but  not  before  the  people 
have  become  incensed  at  the  treachary  of  its 
councilmen  and  have  determined  to  come  down 
with  a  heavy  foot  and  stamp  out  opposition  of 
whatever  nature  that  presents  itself. 

The  lesson  taught  by  the  great  success  of  the 
Brooklyn  bridge,  could  be  utilized  by  Philadel¬ 
phia  capitalists  to  great  advantage.  Contrary 
to  expectations  it  has  become  the  great  high¬ 
way  between  the  two  cities,  so  much  so  in  fact, 
that  there  is  loud  demands  for  the  construction 
of  another  of  even  larger  proportions.  Brook¬ 
lyn  is  growing  rapidly  through  the  influence  of 
rapid  transit  across  the  bridge,  and  without  any 
seeming  detriment  to  the  growth  of  New  York. 
If  the  capitalists  of  New  Jersey  were  wide  awake 
they  would  soon  inaugurate  a  scheme  to  bridge 
the  Delaware  and  not  wait  for  Philadelphian’s 
to  start  the  project.  The  bridge,  if  built,  would 
greatly  enhance  the  value  of  property  within 
a  radius  of  ten  miles  from  Camden  on  the  New 
Jersey  side  of  the  Delaware,  provided,  of  course, 
that  the  railroad  facilities  were  increased  to 
meet  the  requirements  of  the  tide  of  travel  that 
would  naturally  set  that  way,  besides  which,  as 
the  bridge  would  greatly  facilitate  seashore 
travel  ;  the  Traction  Company  could  extend  its 
lines  across  the  bridge,  making  Camden  its  ter¬ 
minal  instead  of  Market  street,  as  at  present. 

The  difference  between  tweedle-dee  and 
tweedle-dum — that  is  the  difference  between 
the  property  belonging  to  the  Pennsylvania  Rail¬ 
road  Company,  that  is  likely  to  be  injured  by 
the  construction  of  a  Belt  Line  Railroad  and 
other  peoples  property  that  was  injured  by  the 
extension  of  its  owu  line,  was  shown  by  General 
Agent  W.  J.  Latta,  of  the  Pennsylvania  R.  R. 
Company,  in  his  speech  before  the  sub-commit¬ 
tee  of  Councils  on  the  subject  of  the  construe* 
tion  of  the  Belt  line.  Mr.  Latta  explained  that 
he  was  responsible  for  the  insertion  of  the 
damage  clause  in  the  Belt  Line  bill  and  he  was 
not  ashamed  of  it.  He  also  stated  that  the 
Pennsylvania  Railroad  Company  was  the  larg¬ 
est  owner  of  property  on  Beach  Street  and  with 
an  emphasis  that  must  sound  refreshingly  dole¬ 
ful  to  the  property  owners  on  Filbert  Street, 
who  tried  in  vain  to  make  Mr.  Latta’s  Company 
compensate  them  for  the  injury  the  Pennsyl¬ 
vania  Elevated  did  to  their  property  he  added  : 
“  Surely  if  the  Belt  Line  damages  our  property 
it  should  foot  the  bill." 

It  is  very  much  the  same  with  Mr.  Latta  as 
with  Speaker  Reed.  With  both  it  seems  to  be 
a  case  of  whose  ox  is  being  gored. 


Considerable  anxiety  is  expressed  just  now 
among  the  builders  who  want  to  pitch  in,  as 
soon  as  spring  fairly  opens  as  to  Director  Wag¬ 
ner’s  intentions  in  regard  to  street  improve¬ 
ments  In  many  respects  the  outlook  is  not 
very  promising,  for  some  of  the  heavier  ope¬ 
rators  who  have  secured  the  land  and  made 
their  financial  and  other  arrangements  for  .big 
operations  during  the  present  year,  but  who 
are  all  at  sea  as  to  just  what  the  city  will  do  in 
regard  to  the  new  streets.  There  is  not  the 
least  doubt  but  that  builders  in  many  localities 
are  to  be  hampered  through  the  city’s  inability 
to  do  its  part  in  the  way  of  street  improve¬ 
ments  ;  but  how  much  and  what  portions  are  to 
be  neglected  are  questions  that  are  causing  con¬ 
siderable  bother.  The  acquisition  of  about 
#31,000,000  of  new  buildings,  representing 
about  $40,000,000  in  assessed  value  to  the  tax 
list  of  the  city  during  1889,  or  $740,000  in  addi¬ 
tional  revenue,  as  a  result  of  the  enterprise  of 
our  builders  involves  a  business  proposition  of 
too  great  a  magnitude  to  be  ignored.  In  face 
of  the  fact  that  with  the  proper  attention  to 
street  improvements  the  results  of  1890,  will 
fully  equal  those  of  1889,  yielding  quite  as  much 
additional  revenue  to  the  city’s  treasury,  it 
ought  to  be  possible  to  raise  money  some  how, 
to  meet  the  emergency.  At  all  events  it  is  a 
subject  that  merits  the  earnest  consideration  of 
our  city  authorities. 


The  agitation  of  the  question  of  labor,  from 
its  earliest  inception,  has  always  had  its  recoil 
upon  those  who  must,  by  the  law  of  nature,  earn 
their  bread  by  toil.  It  has,  until  the  present 
time,  been  an  impossibility  to  devise  any  scheme 
whereby  the  extent  or  results  of  labor  might  be 
curtailed,  and  yet  deserve  the  compensation 
awarded  for  the  present  system  of  ten  hours’ 
product.  Indeed,  after  honest  consideration 
upon  thepart  ofthe  employer  and  the  employee, 
and  a  desire  to  reach  a  fair  basis  upon  which  to 
establish  an  equitable  adjustment  of  this  long- 
vexed  question,  we  are  of  the  opinion  that,  after 
all,  it  will  become  a  matter  for  individual  or  local 
settlement,  rather  than  on  ;  of  National  legisla¬ 
tion,  either  in  the  halls  of  Congress,  or  by  such 
local  bodies  as  the  Builders’  Exchange  and  con¬ 
temporary  associations.  The  interests  of  trade 
and  commerce  are  so  diverse  in  conditions  sur¬ 
rounding  each  other  and  in  their  attitude  toward 
those  who  perform  the  manual  labor,  the  one 
depending  entirely  upon  the  other,  that  neither 
are  in  a  position  to  dictate,  by  an  arbitrary  rule, 
exactly  what  shall  and  must  be  the  predomi¬ 
nating  length  of  laboring  hours.  Looking  at 
the  matter  from  this  standpoint  of  equity  and 
justice  to  each,  we  cannot  help  hut  conclude  that

it  is  best  to  amicably  arrange  the  hours  of  work, 
and  receive  compensation  agreed  upon  between 
the  parties  concerned,  than  to  unsettle  general 
trade  and  business  by  relegating  this  matter, 
continually,  year  after  year,  to  the  legislation 
of  bodies  who  meet  for  only  the  consideration 
of  general  trade  protection  and  improvement. 


Judge  Wm.  B.  Hanna  has  approved  the  re¬ 
port  of  John  W.  Collins,  Esq.,  who  was  appoint¬ 
ed  by  the  Orphans  Court  to  inquire  into  the 
condition  of  the  Equitable  Trust  Company  of 
this  city,  with  the  view  of  finding  out  its  respon¬ 
sibility  to  become  surety  in  cases  before  that 
court  wherein  security  is  required 

Mr.  Collins  highly  commended  the  prudence 
with  which  the  business  affairs  of  the  Compan 
are  managed  as  well  as  its  judicious  seleciioi 
of  investments  a..d  that  it  is  able  to  discharge 
and  fulfil  any  trust  that  may  be  imposed  upon 
it  by  the  action  of  the  court,  as  depository,  ex¬ 
ecutor,  guardian,  trustee  or  administrator. 


The  well-known  firm  of  Merchant  &  Co,  517 
Arch  Street  has  broken  its  record  and  excelled 
all  its  previous  attempts  in  presenting  to  its 
friends  beautiful  and  unique  souvenirs  in  the 
shape  of  calendars.  The  one  for  the  present 
year,  which  has  just  been  recently  sent  out, 
shows  a  happy  combination  of  the  practical  and 
the  ideal,  and  is  a  model  of  good  taste  in  its 
richness  of  coloring  and  artistic  treatment.  It 
is  a  welcome  adjunct  to  any  room,  helps  to  ight 
up  the  dull  expanse  of  an  office  wall ,  and  among 
the  many  calendars  sent  out  by  various  firms  it 
holds  its  own  without  difficulty. 


President  William  F.  Harrity,  of  the  Equit¬ 
able  Trust  Company,  has  made  known  the  fact, 
that  since  occupying  its  new  quarters  at  624 
Chestnut  street  ,the  company  has  received  depo¬ 
sits  amounting  to  over  1325,000.  The  Trust,  Title 
and  Eeal  Estate  Departments  are  now  well  under 
way,  and  the  success  of  the  company  in  all  of 
its  various  departments  fully  assured.  The 
second  instalment  of  the  capital  stock  has  just 
been  concluded,  making  the  amount  of  capital 
paid  in  $350,000.  The  officers  of  the  company 
are  :  President,  William  F.  Harrity  ;  Vice  Pre¬ 
sidents,  George  M.  Dallas  and  Daniel  Donovan; 
Secretary  and  Treasurer,  Frank  J.  Johann;  Trust 
and  Title  officer,  Thomas  Robins.  The  Board  of 
Directors  include  such  well-known  business 
and  professional  men  as  Messrs  Jay  Cook,  Jr  , 
Daniel  Donovan,  George  M.  Dallas,  George  H.

Any  event  indicative  of  the  growth  of  Phila¬ 
delphia’s  manufacturing  interest  should  be 
hailed  with  commendation  as  well  as  satisfac¬ 
tion.  The  erection  of  a  manufacturing  estab¬ 
lishment  of  the  proportions  of  that  now  occupied 
by  the  Thackara  Manufacturing  Company  and 
that  too  on  what  is  perhaps  a  site  usually  con¬ 
sidered  entirely  too  valuable  for  manufacturing 
purposes,  is  an  event  meriting  more  than  a  pass¬ 
ing  notice. 

The  company’s  new  factory  and  show  rooms  is 
located  at  1524  and  1526  Chestnut  st.  The 
building  is  seven  stories  high  on  Chestuut  Street 
and  six  stories  high  on  Sausom  Street.  It  is  a 
handsome  structure  and  certainly  improves  the 
business  appearance  of  Chestnut  Street.  It  is 
strictly  modern,  embracing  every  convenience 
and  improvement  and  is  said  to  be  the  largest  fac¬ 
tory  for  the  manufacture  of  gas  fixtures  and 
electroliers,  there  is  in  the  United  States. 

Speaking  of  the  Thackara  Company  an  ex¬ 
change  says  : 

The  history  of  the  business  of  the  company, 
it  may  be  added,  goes  back  to  1842,  a  period  of 
nearly  half  a  century  and  Mr.  Benjamin 


Thackara,  the  President  ot  the  company,  has 
been  at  its  head  since  1864.  About  eighteen 
mouths  ago  the  business  was  incorporated  on  a 
joint  stock  basis,  under  the  present  title.  So  it 
will  be  seen  that  the  company  not  only  ranks 
among  fhe  largest  but  also  among  the  oldest 
concerns  of  the  kind  in  the  country,  if  not  in 
the  world.” 

The  Company’s  removal  has  been  completed 
and  its  doors  are  open  for  both  visitors  and 
business. 


Will  the  coming  man  write?  Not  at  all.  There 
will  be  no  more  need  of  his  learning  to  write 
than  of  his  learning  to  spin.  Writing  will  have 
become  one  of  the  lost  arts,  and  a  wholly  un¬ 
necessary  art,  by  the  time  the  coming  man 
appears.  His  writing  will  be  done  by  the  pho¬ 
nograph,  which  will  be  placed  on  his  desk  as 
pens  and  ink  are  now  ;  and  whenever  he  has  a 
story,  a  poem,  an  essay,  or  a  private  letter  to 
indite,  he  will  simply  talk  into  the  phonograph, 
and  send  on  the  plate  which  has  recomed  his 
words.  The  teaching  of  penmanship  will  be 
unknown  in  the  school  of  the  future,  and  writ 
ing,  in  the  present  fashion,  will  be  regarded  as 
much  among  barbaric  methods  as  we  now  hold  , 
the  rude  hitroglyphics  of  the  ancients  to  be. —

The  Vienna  Gambrinus  publishes  a  table  of 
European  breweries  and  their  output  for  the 
year  1887.  The  whole  number  of  breweries  in 
Europe  was  50,800,  and  the  production  of  beer 
and  ale  amounted  to  about  4,580,000,000  gallons. 
The  taxes  collected  from  this  sea  of  beer 
amounted  to  about  $130,000,000.  The  malt 
used  weighed  740,000  tous,  and  the  hops  no, 
000  tons.  Germany  alone  contained  26,143 
breweries,  producing  1,188,000,000  gallons, 
while  Austro-Hungary  had  only  1979  breweries, 
producing  354,000,000  gallons.  The  figures  re¬ 
lating  to  the  production  per  capita  show  that 
the  smallest  quantity,  one  litre  per  head,  the 
litre  being  a  little  more  than  a  quart,  is  in  Bos¬ 
nia  and  Roumania.  Greece  shows  2 yh  litres  ; 
Ru-sia,  4  3-5;  France,  31;  Switzerland,  40; 
Deumark,  63  :  Germany,  73;  Upper  Austria, 
116;  Lower  Austria,  121  ;  Belgium,  150;  Wer- 
U  mburg,  218,  and  the  Kingdom  of  Bavaria  leads 
all  competitors,  with  248  litres,  or  nearly  65 
gallons  for  every  man,  woman  and  child  in  the 
country. 


Wealth  of  the  United  States. 

The  New  York  World  has  obtained  from  the 
treasurer  of  each  State  the  value  of  property  as 
assessed  for  taxation.  The  census  office  in  1886 
made  a  report  of  its  exhaustive  and  laborious 
inquiry  into  the  proportions  existing  in  each 
State  between  taxed  property  and  actual  wealth, 
which  range  between  25  per  cent,  in  Illinois  and 
68  in  Wyoming.  The  World’s  report  shows  an 
increase  in  taxable  property  of $6,963,1  00,000  and 
an  increase  in  actual  wealth  of  $18,162/  00,000 
since  1880.  The  total  wealth  is  $61,459,000,000, 
exclusive  of  the  pub.ic  property,  and  $3,093,000 
property  invested  and  owned  abroad  The 
assessed  value  of  taxed  property  and  our ’actual 
wealth  at  different  decades  has  been  :

The  wealth  of  the  United  States  now  exceeds 
the  total  wealth  of  the  whole  world  at  any  time 
previous  to  the  middle  of  the  eighteenth  cen- 
tu  y,  and  the  amount  invested  abroad  is  alone 
equal  to  the  national  wealth  of  Portugal  and 
Denmark.  The  total  wealth  of  only  five  nations 
is  equal  to  the  mere  increase  of  the  United 
States  in  the  past  nine  years. 

Whites  increase  faster  than  Blacks. 

I  stand  prepared  to  show  the  following  facts  : 

1  The  negro  population  of  the  South  has 


never  increased  in  equal  ratio  with  the  whites, 
from  the  foundation  of  the  Government  to  the 
census  of  1880. 

2  The  white  population  increased  9.57  per 
cent,  during  the  decade  1860-70. 

3  For  the  same  period,  the  negroes  increased 
8.29  per  cent 

4  For  the  decade  1870-80,  the  white  popula¬ 
tion  increased  37.64  per  cent  ,  the  negro  popu¬ 
lation,  35.66  per  cent. 

5  For  the  20  years,  i860  to  1880,  the  white 
population  increased  50.81  per  cent.,  the  negro 
population,  46.91  per  cent. 

This  period  covers  the  term  of  years  in  which 
the  South  lost  nearly  1,000,000  of  her  white 
population  by  the  casualties  of  war. 

In  the  above  statement,  I  do  not  include  the 
states  of  Maryland,  Delaware,  Kentucky,  and 
Missouri.  These  states  are  excluded  because 
1  ss  than  5  per  cent,  of  their  population  belongs 
to  the  negro  race. 

Broadly  stated,  the  fact  is  shown  by  the  cen¬ 
sus  of  the  United  States,  that  notwithstanding 
the  destruction  of  human  life  by  the  war,  the 
white  population  of  twelve  Southern  states  in¬ 
creased  in  a  greater  ratio  than  the  negro  race 
by  nearly  4  per  cent. — Atlanta  Constitution.

The  value  of  a  Home. 

A  cit}'  which  has  the  largest  share  of  individ 
ual  home-owners,  has  the  smallest  share  of  dan* 
gerous  classes.  A  man  who  owns  a  home,  or 
who  is  successfully  trying  to  own  a  home,  can 
never  be  turned  into  an  Ishmaelite,  a  Bohemian 
or  Anarchist.  In  struggling  against  the  tene¬ 
ment  house  system,  and  in  struggling  for  a 
h<  me,  heroes  are  made  out  of  common  clay. 
N  >  man  can  rent  a  home.  Let  every  means 
which  business  enterprise  can  devise  to  further 
home-owning,  be  encouraged.  There  was  never 
an  age  nor  a  day  when  it  was  truer  than  now, 
that  “  There’s  no  place  like  home.” — Exc. 


Lewis  Goodlove  states  some  facts  ab  ut 
Mexico  which  everybody  who  has  been  theie 
can  corroborate.  He  says  :  Although  Mexico 
has  a  population  of  ir,ooo,aoo,  it  must  be  borne 
in  mind  that  at  a  high  estimate  not  over  20  per 
cent,  of  this  number  have  the  means  with  which 
to  purchase  goods  of  any  kind.  Fully  9,000,000 
Mexicans  are  people  who  produce  nothing,  earn 
almost  nothing  and  consequently  consume  no¬ 
thing  that  we  could  sell  them.  When  men 
rarely  receive  more  than  fifteen  cents  per  day 
for  their  labor,  they  are  not  the  kind  of  cus¬ 
tomers  the  merchants  of  the  United  States  are 
seeking.  The  climate  of  Mexico  is  such  that  but 
little  clothing  is  needed.  It  is  possible  to  harvest 
tw  o  crops  of  cereals  annually,  and  fruit  and  vege¬ 
tables  grow  in  abundance  the  year  round.  The 
only  articles  which  these  people  will  buy  are 
pulque,  the  national  drink,  and  sombreros.  A 
Mexican  will  generally  deprive  himself  and  his 
family  of  necessary  clothing  and  food  in  order 
1  hat  he  may  buy  an  extravagantly  expensive 
sombrero.

The  production  of  Bessemer  steel  ingots  in 
the  United  States  during  1886  was  2,269,190

at  1,562,410  gross  tons.  The  production  of 
Bessemer  steel  ingots  in  1886  was  698,670  tons 
more  than  that  of  1885,  while  the  production  of

Slate  an  unsafe  Roofing. 

A  writer  in  the  Milling  World,  says  :  Slate  is 
not  a  safe  material  for  null  roofs.  Not  long  ago 
I  saw  a  slate-roofed  mill  fired  by  heat  from  an 
adjoining  building.  The  hei.t  cracked  the  slates 
and  they  ran  off"  the  roof  in  a  shower,  leaving 
dry  wood  exposed  to  the  flames.  Another  buil¬ 
ding  covered  with  shingles  was  equally  exposed 
and  singularly  enough,  the  roofof  the  slate-cov¬ 
ered  mill  took  fire  before  the  roof  of  the  shin¬ 
gle-covered  building.  The  streams  of  water 
turned  on  the  slates  after  they  became  hot, 
caused  their  rapid  destruction,  while  thewettee 
shingles  were  kept  from  burning.  The  slatd 
roof  allowed  streams  of  water  to  drip  downward 
through  the  entire  building,  while  the  shingle 
roof  protected  the  building  which  it  covered. 
Slate  roofs  may  prevent  fires  from  floating  sparks 
and  shingle  roofs  when  very  dry  may  invite  fires 
Irom  such  sparks,  but  where  buildings  are  crowd¬ 
ed  closely  together,  almost  any  one  of  the  roof¬ 
ing  materials  is  better  and  safer  than  slate,  be¬ 
cause  in  the  case  of  crowded  buildings  the  slate 
is  exposed  to  heat  sufficient  to  break  it  and  un¬ 
cover  the  wood  — Fire  and  Water.

THE  RECORD  AND  GUIDE. 


FOR  TWENTY  YEARS 

EHRET’S 

Slag -Stone  Composition 

has  stood  the  severest  tests  and  in  no  case  has  it 
ever  failed. 

It  is  Fire  Proof,  as  well  as  Damp  and  Moisture 
proof.  It  never  expands  or  contracts  ;  it  is  not  af¬ 
fected  by  Steam,  Acids,  Gasses,  Vapors  or  other 
injurious  influences,  that  would  render  a  metal  roof 
perfectly  useless  in  a  few  weeks.  It  is  air-tight  and 
is  not  affected  by  atmospheric  influences  of  any 
kind  ;  it  is  durable  and  reliable  in  winter  and  sum¬ 
mer,  and  positively  requires  no  care  or  attention 
whatever.  It  will  out-last  the  BUILDING  and  for 
Factories,  Chemical  Works,  Boiler  and  Engine- 
houses,  Depots,  Factories,  Mills  and  Warehouses, 
it  is  without  an  equal.  It  costs  less  than  tin  or 
slate,  requires  no  painting,  can  be  walked  on  with¬ 
out  injury  and  must  not  be  considered  in  the  same 
light  and  prejudice  usually  bestowed  upon  what  are 
known  as  Tar  Roofs. 

BEWARE  OF  IMITATIONS,  for  the  durability  of 
our  Roofing  is  not  only  owing  to  our  great  care  in 
laying  on  a  roof  ;  but  also  in  the  scientific  prepara¬ 
tion  of  the  Material  we  use.  Circulars  and  testimo¬ 
nials  sent  upon  application.

VOL.  V.— No.  6.  PHILADELPHIA,  WEDNESDAY,  FEBRUARY  12,  1890.  PRICE  15  CENTS. 


Warming  and  Ventilation. 

So  much  has  been  said  and  written  on  the  I 
subject  of  heating  and  its  inseparable  adjunct, 
ventilation,  that  apparently  little  or  no  excuse 
remains  for  ignorance  on  a  subject  possessing 
so  much  of  vital  interest  to  humanity.  It  is  a 
fact,  however,  and  a  sad  commentary  either  on 
the  carelessness  of  human  nature  in-general,  or 
its  willingness  to  be  imposed  upon,  that  at  least 
nine-tenths  of  the  population  of  the  civilized  j 
world  pay  little  or  no  attention  to  the  subject, 
and  were  houses  better  constructed  than  they 
now  generally  are,  the  inmates  would  doubtless 
perish  of  suffocation  for  the  want  of  a  sufficient 
supply  of  air.  While  means  are  taken  in  most 
cases,  even  in  houses  of  very  moderate  cost,  to 
provide  some  kind  of  a  heating  apparatus,  be  it 
evei  so  inadequate,  little  or  no  attention  is 
given  to  the  means  of  providing  the  tenants  J 
with  pure  air;  the  architect  or  builder  in  many 
cases  depending  on  the  partial  and  dangerous  j 
ventilation  secured  by  windows,  doors  and  con¬ 
venient  cracks  and  crevices  left  by  a  careless 
workman.  The  failure  to  secure  a  happy 
combination  of  heat  and  air  is  not  to  be 
wondered  at  when  one  considers  the  diffi 
culty  of  securing  at  the  same  time  a  sufficient 
degree  of  warmth  combined  with  an  adequate 
supply  of  pure,  fresh  air,  or  as  Dr.  Arnott 
happily  puts  it  “to  obtain  everywhere  at 
will,  the  temperature  most  congenial  to  the 
human  constitution  and  as  pure  as  blows  on 
a  hill  top  ” 

No  one  is  likely  entitled  to  greater  credit 
for  the  interest  awakened  in  the  subjects 
of  warming  and  ventilation  than  Col.  Isaac 
D.  Smead,  of  Toledo,  Ohio,  whose  treatise 
on  the  same,  lies  before  us.  For  more  than 
twenty  years  Mr.  Smead  has  devoted  his  en¬ 
tire  attention  to  the  study  of  how  a  building 
could  be  warmed  and  at  the  same  time  well 
ventilated.  His  early  attention  was  attracted 
to  the  theories  of  Henry  J.  Ruttan,  of  Canada, 
from  which  Mr.  Smead  has  evolved  the  system 
which  now  bears  his  name  and  is  being  intro¬ 
duced  in  more  public  buildings,  such  as  col¬ 
leges,  schools,  jails  and  court  houses,  through¬ 
out  the  United  States  and  Canada,  than  any 
other.  In  this  treatise  Mr.  Smead  discusses  the 
theories  of  warming  and  ventilation  from  a 
practical  knowledge  as  an  engineer  and  an  ex¬ 
perience  in  warming  and  ventilating  several 
thousand  buildings  to  which  he  refers  as  proof 
of  the  success  of  the  methods  used  and  the  cor¬ 
rectness  of  the  principles  employed  to  make 
buildings  breathe,  while  being  comfortably 
warmed. 

The  purpose  of  this  article  is  to  present  to  the 
study %  of  our  readers  the  Smead  system,  which 
seems  to  offer  a  solution  to  the  much  vexed 
question  of  warming  and  ventilation  at  a  limi¬ 
ted  expense,  and  approaches  the  nearest  to  the 
conditions  insisted  upon  by  Dr.  Arnott  and  Mr. 
Ruttan.  Briefly  stated  the  system  is  this  :  Mr. 
Smead  insists  that  in  this  climate,  if  a  building 
is  to  be  properly  warmed  and  ventilated,  it 


must  be  constructed  with  a  view  to  the  kind  of  |  the  room,  will  be  obtained;  and  he  refers  to 
heating  and  ventilating  apparatus  to  be  used,  |  thousands  of  buildings  where  the  temperature

a  room  once  every  ten  to  fifteen  minutes.  He  j  many  buildings,  places  it  beyond  the  stage  of  a 
further  claims  that  the  cheapest  and  most  j  theory.  Mr.  Smead  makes  no  apologies  for  his 
economical  method  ot  warming  and  ventilating  j  system.  He  simply  presents  the  facts  as  he  has 
schools  and  other  public  buildings  where  large  |  seen  and  proven  them.  He  asks  no  one  to  ac-

of  warming  and  ventilation  at  a  much  lower 
cost  than  the  ordinary  water  closets,  and 
when  placed  in  position,  last  for  years  with 
little  or  no  repairing.  The  fact  that  the  foe- 
cal  matter  can  be  thoroughly  dr  ied  and  easily 
cremated,  and  that  no  sewerage  is  required 
in  their  construction,  will  undoubtedly  bring 
them  into  general  use. 

On  this  page  is  presented  a  cut  of  the  Smead 
Air  Warmer,  used  by  Messrs.  Smead,  Wills 
&  Co.,  whose  office  is  located  at  417  Locust 
street,  this  city,  and  who  represent  the  Smead 
system  in  this  section  of  ti  e  United  States. 
If  large  furnaces,  for  warming  the  air,  large 
flues  for  conveying  the  air  to  the  rooms,  and 
a  large  ventilating  stack"  for  exhausting  the 
air  from  the  rooms  have  any  value  over 
small  furnaces,  small  flues,  and  in  many 
instances  no  ventilating  stack  whatever,  they 
surely  give  emphasis  to  the  statement  made 
Some  of  the  special  features  of  Mr  Smead’s  j  by  this  firm  that  theirs  is  the  best  w'armed  and 


system  of  ventilation  are  :  First.  The  exits  for 
foul  air  should  be  placed  at  or  below  the  floor 
level,  avoiding  strong  draughts,  while  more 
equally  distributing  the  temperature.  Second. 
That  continuous  ventilation  is  necessary  to 
keep  the  air  in  a  room  fresh  and  pure,  and  that 


ventilated  office  building  in  the  city  of  Phila¬ 
delphia.  Indicating  the  popularity  of  this  sys¬ 
tem  they  point  to  the  many  buildings  in  this 
city  and  places  near  this  city,  to  thirty-three 
buildings  in  Washington,  D.  C.,  six  buildings 
in  Harrisburg,  eight  in  Scranton,  Pa.,  nine- 


this  should  be  adjusted  so  that  when  the  warm  j  teen  in  Columbus,  and  every  school  building  in 
!  air  is  shut  off,  a  corresponding  volume  of  cooler  |  the  city  of  Toledo,  Ohio,  twenty-one  in  Detroit, 
air  should  be  admitted;  that  the  occupants  may  j  Michigan,  thirty-one  in  Toronto,  Canada,  four- 
have  the  choice  of  warm  air,  or  cool  air,  or  a  j  teen  in  Rochester,  N.  Y.,  and  to  many  build- 
mixture  of  the  two  at  will.  Third.  That  the  |  ings  in  places  too  numerous  to  mention.  The 


registers  should  be  more  hole  than  iron,  and 
adjusted  so  as  to  render  it  impossible  to  close 
off  either  the  incoming  or  the  outgoing  air. 
Fourth.  That  a  large  volume  of  air,  moderately 
warmed,  meets  the  requirements  much  better 
|  than  a  small  volume  of  very  hot  air.  If  these 
|  principles  are  carried  out  the  result  obtained 
I  cannot  be  otherwise  than  satisfactory  for  just 
!  what  the  people  have  demanded  so  long, 

!  namely,  that  a  large  volume  of  air  at  a  low  tem- 
|  perature  should  be  thrown  into  the  room  and  a 
I  corresponding  volume  of  foul  air  removed  from 


success  with  which  the  system  has  met  in  so 
many  buildings  is  surely  the  best  guarantee  of 
its  merits, and  should  commend  it  to  the  study  of 
architects  and  builders,  as  well  as  to  all  those  in¬ 
terested  in  the  erection  of  school  and  other 
public  buildings. 

Messrs.  Smead,  Wills  &  Co.  cordially  invite 
one  and  all  to  visit  their  new  building  which 
has  been  fitted  up  and  especially  adapted  for 
this  system,  to  make  any  tests  they  may  desire 
and  prove  or  disprove  any  claims  they  make.

PHILADELPHIA,  WED’Y.  FEB.  12,  1890. 

For  the  convenience  of  members  of  the 
Master  Builders’  Exchange,  we  have  secured 
Box  No.  199  at  that  place,  where  any  communi¬ 
cations  for  publication  may  be  left. 


The  Maryland  Legislature  is  soon  to  vote 
upon  a  bill  fixing  the  price  of  gas  in  the  city  of 
Baltimore  at  $1.25  per  thousand  feet.  The 
Fitler-Wagner-Stokley  administration  might  do 
that  much  lor  the  citizens  of  Philadelphia;  but 
it  wont. 


A  comparison  of  the  transfers  of  real  estate 
of  last  week  with  the  corresponding  week  of 
last  year,  shows  that  there  were  349  transfers 
last  year,  representing  ?i, 883, 388.44  against  277 
this  year,  representing  $1,894,729.81,  a  falling 
off  of  72  transfers,  but  an  increase  in  value  of 
$11,341.37. 

The  outlook  among  the  architects  is  much 
better  than  it  was  this  time  last  year,  in  fact 
many  of  them  are  compelled  to  refuse  small 
work.  We  saw  a  practical  illustration  of  this 
one  day  last  week  when  an  architect  in  our 
presence  not  only  refused  the  application  of  a 
promised  client,  but  stated  that  he  had  more 
work  in  hand  than  he  could  do.  There  appears 
to  be  very  little  factory  or  mill  work  in  hand, 
and  very  little  promised.  There  is  considerable 
suburban  building  contemplated,  the  most  of 
which  is  for  handsome  residences.  This,  in 
itself,  with  what  is  known  as  operation  work, 
keeps  the  architects  busy.  It  is  too  early  to 
speak  specifically,  yet  there  is  at  present  every 
evidence  of  a  big  year. 


The  prevailing  sentiment  is,  that  men  of  pro¬ 
gressive  ideas,  irrespective  of  party  affiiliations, 
should  be  sent  to  Councils.  Certainly  no  class 
of  our  citizens  understand  the  necessities  of  the 
city  better  than  our  builders.  The  citizens  of 


the  Twenty-fourth  ward  have  selected  a  promi¬ 
nent  builder,  lawyer  and  conveyancer  as  a  can¬ 
didate  for  Councils  in  the  person  of  Mr  Thos. 
P.  Twibill.  Mr.  Twibill  is  a  Democrat,  and,  for 
that  reason,  may  be  objectionable  to  the  few 
working  Republicans  of  the  ward  ;  but,  as  a 
rule,  he  is  generally  acceptable  and  will  be 
largely  supported  by  those  who  regard  the  inte¬ 
rests  of  the  ward  above  partizanship,  the  owners 
of  real  estate  being  particularly  interested  in  his 
success.  Mr.  Twibill  is  emphatic  in  his  pro¬ 
test  against  any  further  delay  in  the  work  of  ex¬ 
tending  and  completing  Mantua  avenue.  The 
Thirty-fourth  Street  Bridge,  he  says,  is  an  abso¬ 
lute  necessity,  and  should  be  constructed  at  the 
earliest  possible  day.  It  has  been  stated  that 
the  Citizens’  Committees  of  both  the  Twenty- 
fourth  and  Thirty-fourth  wards  have  promised 
Mr.  Twibill  their  undivided  support  and  influ¬ 
ence. 

IT  is  certainly  time  that  voters  of  this  city 
took  hold  of  the  question  of  selecting  council- 
manic  timber  in  dead  earnest.  Our  city  gov¬ 
ernment  has  grown  from  bad  to  worse.  The 
Gas  Trust  ring,  in  its  powerful  and  profligate 
rule,  never  equalled  the  courage  and  audacity 
of  those  who  run  things  now.  Public  senti¬ 
ment  is  only  partially  aroused.  The  people 
have  slept  so  long  that  a  thorough  awakening 
before  election  seems  improbable.  Party  fealty 
has  become  too  much  of  a  religion  with  many 
Republicans,  and  of  entirely  too  little  import¬ 
ance  with  many  Democrats  of  easy  virtue. 
The  “regular  ticket,”  as  a  party  shiboleth  in 
city  politics,  has  become  a  curse,  an  empty 
anthem,  a  trap  in  which  the  voters,  with  hon¬ 
est  intentions,  have  been  ensnared  and  used  to 
perpetuate  the  power  of  those  who  possess 
neither  honest  purposes  nor  patriotic  motives. 
The  corrupting  influences  of  constant  power 
has  entered  the  very  bone  of  many  of  the  lead¬ 
ers  of  both  parties,  as  an  evidence  of  which  the 
recent  attempts  to  swerve  whole  conventions 
of  the  minority  party  from  well  defined  pur¬ 
poses  for  no  other  object  than  to  secure  the 
monied  and  other  interests  of  those  who  were 
in  co-hoots  with  the  distributors  of  the  spoils, 
and  who  had  contracted  to  deliver  the  goods. 
The  fact  is,  a  change  must  take  place,  or  there 
is  no  knowing  how  much  worse  our  city  gov¬ 
ernment  will  become.  There  is  certainly  no 
reason  to  hope  for  better  city  government  until 
the  people  comprehend  that  they  owe  a  duty  to 
each  other  notwithstanding  their  political  pref¬ 
erences  and  their  love  for  the  regular  ticket. 

In  London,  England,  there  is  what  is  known 
as  a  Horse  Accident  Society.  One  of  its  duties 
besides  the  care  of  injured  horses,  is  to  investi¬ 


gate  the  causes  of  accidents.  Recently  the 
society  has  devoted  considerable  time  and  ex¬ 
pense  to  the  study  of  street  pavements  and  how 
far  the  material  used  was  responsible  for  the 
accidents  to  horses  that  were  receiving  charity. 
The  investigations  covered  fifty  days,  during 
which  time  a  careful  summary  was  kept  of  the 
accidents  occuring  on  wood,  stone  and  asphalt 
pavements,  the  conditions  being  as  nearly 
alike,  both  as  to  distance,  grade  and  weather 
as  possible.  The  investigation  established  the 
fact  that  wood  afforded  a  surer  looting  for 
horses  than  either  stone  or  asphalt.  That  on  a 
dry  pavement  a  horse  would  travel  without  ac¬ 
cident  646  miles  on  wood,  223  on  asphalt  and 
only  78  on  granite.  It  was  also  established 
that  in  moist  weather  wood  was  good  for  193 
miles,  granite  for  168  miles,  and  asphalt  for  125 
miles;  and  during  wet  weather  a  horse  would 
travel  on  granite  537  miles,  on  wood  432  miles 
and  on  asphalt  192  miles. 

According  to  the  report  the  following  state¬ 
ment  is  concluusive,  that :  1.  Asphalt  was  most 
slippery  when  merely  damp,  and  safest  when 
perfectly  dry,  and  that  a  horse  might  be  ex¬ 
pected  to  travel  on  the  asphalt  without  an  acci- 
deut  nearly  twice  the  distance  when  the  pave¬ 
ment  was  dry  that  it  could  do  when  damp.  2. 
That  granite  was  most  slippery  when  dry  and 
safest  when  wet;  that  a  horse  might  be  expected 
to  travel  on  granite  without  accident  nearly 
seven  times  the  distance  when  the  pavement 
was  wet  than  when  dry,  and  that  the  granite 
was  about  twice  as  safe  when  merely  damp  as 
when  dry.  3.  That  wood  was  most  slippery 
when  damp,  and  safest  when  dry;  that  a  horse 
might  be  expected  to  travel  on  the  wood  more 
than  three  times  the  distance  when  the  pave¬ 
ment  was  dry  than  when  damp,  and  that  the 
wood  was  more  than  twice  as  safe  when  wet  as 
when  damp. 

It  is  an  easy  matter  to  adapt  the  conclusions 
derived  from  the  society’s  investigations  to  a 
selection  of  material  for  street  pavements  in 
this  country.  Wood  has  been  thoroughly  tested 
here,  and  has  proven  a  failure  in  every  in¬ 
stance  owing  to  its  rapid  decay,  and  is  conse¬ 
quently  out  of  the  question  Granite  excels 
asphalt  only  in  wet  or  moist  weather,  but  as  the 
number  of  dry  days  in  this  country,  as  a  rule, 
largely  exceed  the  number  of  wet  days,  it  is 
safe  to  say  that  ultimately  asphalt  will  become 
the  accepted  pavement  in  this  country.  Mr.  J. 
W.  Thomas,  London,  is  the  Secretary  of  the 
Society. 


The  Master  Builders’  Association  of  the

THE  RECORD  AND  GUIDE. 


for  the  general  benefit  of  the  various  interests 
centralized  within  the  corporate  limits  of  that 
great  and  ever-increasing  organization.  Among 
other  things  presented  for  consideration  was 
that  of  the  proposition  to  make  eight  hours  the 
length  ot  a  day’s  labor,  and,  after  much  debate 
upon  the  great  and  diverse  interests  involved, 
the  following  well-advised  resolution  was  passed 
as  an  expression  of  the  feelings  of  the  conven¬ 
tion  upon  this  important  subject: 

“Recognizing  the  agitation  for  shorter  hours 
of  labor  than  those  now  prevailing,  The  National 
Association  of  Builders,  in  convention  assem¬ 
bled,  declares  that,  as  a  central  body,  represent¬ 
ing  so  many  different  constituencies,  it  is  not 
competent,  nor  proper,  for  it  to  define  a  certain 
number  of  hours  for  the  buiding  trade  generally 
to  adopt,  but  that  it  should  be  left  to  the  local 
bodies  to  adjust  the  number  of  hours  ot  labor 
as  circumstances  and  conditions  by  which  they 
are  surrounded  may  dictate.  But  we  do  believe 
that  this  body  should  persistently  urge  upon  all 
local  bodies,  that  the  thorough  establishment  of 
the  system  ‘  payment  by  the  hour  ’  is  an  abso¬ 
lute  necessary  safeguard,  and  that  they  earnestly 
labor  to  secure  the  establishment  of  this  sys 
tern.” 

The  prevailing  sentiment  is  expressed  in  the 
above  so  explicitly  that  comment  is  unneces¬ 
sary.  The  question  is  one  that  resolves  itself 
into  local  settlement  and  amicable  arbitration, 
and  to  these  two  powerful  levers  of  advantage  it 
can  safely  be  entrusted. 

The  Philadelphia  delegation  consisted  of 
1 19  members,  who  speak  in  glowing  terms  of 
their  trip,  and  of  the  good  results  that  must  fol¬ 
low.  Some  of  the  individual  members  of  the 
Philadelphia  Exchange,  were  tendered  thehor  or 
of  a  share  of  the  National  Executive  offices, 
but  declined  for  lack  of  opportunity  aud  time 
to  perform  the  onerous  duties  of  such  offices. 

The  annual  meeting  of  the  Builders’  Exchange 
of  Philadelphia,  whieh  was  postponed  on  ac. 
count  of  the  absence  of  so  many  members  at 
the  National  Assemblage,  at  St.  Paul,  Minn., 
came  off  on  the  afternoon  of  the  4th  inst.,  and 
was  largely  attended,  President  Woellper  in  the 
chair.  Reports  of  the  various  committees  were 
received  and  filed,  and  among  those  ot  particu¬ 
lar  interest  was  one  upon  the  contract  system 
at  present  prevailing,  and,  after  noting  matters 
as  they  existed,  a  special  committee  was  asked 
to  be  appointed  to  further  consider  the  rela¬ 
tions  existing  between  the  builders  and  the 
architects,  and  to  adopt  or  to  recommend  some 
fair  and  equitable  rule  upon  the  question  of 
estimating  upon  the  construction  and  erection 
of  work  on  the  presentation  of  estimates  for  the 
same,  which  was  adopted. 

The  Building  Committee  reported  the  comple¬ 
tion  of  its  labors  and  an  expenditure  on  the 
new  structure  of  a  total  of  $71,000.  This  tem¬ 
ple  of  tndustry  will  stand  as  a  monument  to  the 
enterprise  of  the  Builders’  Exchange  of  Phila¬ 
delphia,  for  many  decades  to  come.  After  the 
election  of  the  following  named  gentlemen  as 
officers  for  the  ensuing  year,  the  Exchange 
adjourned  to  partake  of  their  annual  banquet : 
President,  Stacy  Reeves ;  Secretary,  William 
Harkness,Jr.  ;  Treasurer,  Charles  H.  Reeves. 


The  old  established  firm  of  paint  manufact¬ 
urers,  Samuel  H.  French  &  Co.,  at  York  ave¬ 
nue  and  Callowhill  street,  this  city,  has  just 
favored  its  many  friends  with  a  handsome  cal¬ 
endar  for  the  present  year.  This  souvenir  is 


really  a  work  of  art  and  remarkable  for  the 
richness  and  brilliancy  of  its  coloring  and  the 
superior  excellence  of  its  workmanship  and  fin¬ 
ish.  The  design  is  original  and  eftective,  and 
the  calendar,  as  a  whole,  in  keeping  with  the 
well  known  progressive  ideas  and  tendencies  of 
the  firm. 


BradSTREET’S  reports  259  failures  iu  the

Removal. 

The  Trust  Company  of  North  America  has 
taken  possession  of  its  new  offices  at  503,  505 
and  507  Chestnut  street.  Its  new  quarters  are 
well  adapted  for  its  business,  and  although  ela¬ 
borately  finished,  the  purposes  for  which  they 
were  constructed  has  not  been  forgotten. 


The  Abram  Cox  Stove  Company’s  Works 
Burned. 

The  destruction  of  the  Abram  Cox  Stove  Com¬ 
pany’s  works,  at  Lansdale  Montgomery  Co.,  Pa.,  is 
too  serious  not  to  be  regretted  by  every  one.  The 
works  were  of  the  most  extensive,  and  the  buildings 
destroyed  by  the  fire  will,  with  stock,  approximate  a 
loss  of  about  $75,000,  About  one  hundred  men 
were  constantly  employed  turning  out  stoves.  All 
of  the  patterns  were  saved.  This  is  extremely  for¬ 
tunate,  as  much  delay  and  inconvenience  will  be 
avoided.  The  large  frame  warehouse,  filled  with 
goods  ready  for  market,  was  completely  destroyed. 
The  foundry  building  has  its  walls  standing,  which 
may  perhaps  be  utilized.  It  is  the  intention  of  the 
company  to  rebuild  at  once.  The  fire  is  supposed  to 
have  originated  from  an  overheated  stove  in  the 
wash-room  of  the  moulding  department.  The  insur¬ 
ance  amounted  to  about  $60,000.  The  business  of  the 
concern  will  noi  be  interrupted,  as  the  company  has 
a  large  stock  of  its  wares  on  hand,  distributed 
among  its  warehouses  in  many  cities.  The  Lans¬ 
dale  plant  will  only  represent  about  one-fourth  of 
the  capacity  to  manufacture,  the  other  three-fourths 
being  in  the  city  and  ready  for  any  emergency  that 
may  arise. 


Artistic  Wood  Mantels. 

The  popularity  of  wood  mantels  is  not  only 
increasing  but  the  demand  necessitates  radical 
departures  in  the  way  of  a  higher  character  of 
work  and  more  striking  designs.  It  is  now  not 
a  question  of  what  the  dealer  has  on  hand,  for 
tastes  have  become  so  highly  cultivated  that 
it’s  a  live  man  indeed  who  can  meet  the  require¬ 
ments  of  the  time.  There  is  such  a  man,  how¬ 
ever,  and  he  is  reaping  the  just  reward  of  his 
enterprise  and  energy.  In  fact  he  has  grown 
tired  of  depending  upon  others,  and  in  future 
proposes  to  manufacture  his  own  wood  mantels. 
This  will  enable  him  to  push  things  when 
pushing  is  most  needed.  Matthew  Hall,  per¬ 
haps,  as  fully  comprehends  the  necessities  of 
builders  and  architects  as  any  dealer  in  build¬ 
ing  material  in  the  city.  He  fully  understands 
the  pulse  of  the  trade,  and  his  hosts  of  business 
friends  will  be  pleased  to  learn  that  his  wood 
mantel  factory,  1334  Brandywine  street,  is  in 
full  swing  with  a  working  force  second  to  none 
in  the  city.  Of  course  the  old  headquarters’ 
store  and  office,  1927  and  1929  Market  street, 
still  remain,  and  will  not  be  disturbed.  Per¬ 
sons  at  a  distance  from  the  city  will  in  future 
.be  able  to  gratify  their  artistic  tastes,  so  far  at 
least  as  wood  mantels  are  concerned,  as  Mr. 
Hall  proposes  to  give  outside  trade  proper  care 
and  attention.  Country  homes  and  suburban 
residences  nowadays  are  not  considered  fin¬ 
ished  unless  the  wood  mantel  predominates. 


The  effect  is  the  great  desideratum.  Mr.-  Hall’s 
designers  will  be  found  equal  to  every  emer¬ 
gency. 


The  Philadelphia  Ledger 

On  Woven  Wire  Lathing. 

The  Philadelphia  Ledger,  in  its  issue  of  Saturday, 
February  8lh  instant,  speaking  of  the  sad  disaster 
which  befell  the  household  of  Secretary  Tracy,  very 
pointedly  mentions  the  wonderful  fire  preventive 
qualities  of  woven  wire  lathing  in  the  following  un¬ 
mistakable  language.  We  quote  its  exact  words,  as 
that  journal  evidently  knows  whereof  it  speaks,  and 
as  it  is  confirmatory  of  our  own  repeated  statements 
based  upon  personal  knowledge,  it  may  influence  the 
use  of  woven  wire  in  many  cases  where  wood  work 
of  any  description  is  exposed  to  heat,  and  thereby 
prevent  in  future  a  repetition  of  such  disasters  as  that 
which  bereft  Secretary  Tracy  of  a  wife  and  daugh¬ 
ter.  The  Ledger  says : 

The  vast  importance  of  wire  lathing  and  plaster 
wherever  joists  come  too  near  the  scorching  hot 
pipes  can  hardly  be  sufficiently  discussed.  Plaster, 
especially  when  set  in  a  wire  network,  leaves  lit¬ 
tle  hold  for  sparks  or  scorching  to  catch  upon. 
Unless  an  experienced  and  careful  hand  manages 
the  furnace,  so  that  its  surroundings  in  the  cellar 
never  get  overheated,  the  advantages  of  this  sort 
of  surrounding  wire  and  plaster,  slow-burning,  are 
very  great. 

This  is  a  strong  endorsement  of  woven  wire  lathing 
as  a  great  fire  preventive,  but  is  none  too  strong,  for 
the  occasion  that  called  it  forth  justifies  columns  of 
commendation  when  safety  is  assured  by  the  use  of 
an  article  costing  but  a  trifle  more  than  the  old  wood 
lathing,  which  never  can  be  made  anything  better 
than  a  fire  trap  We  believe  that  the  strong  arm  of 
the  law  should  be  invoked  to  protect  those  who  can¬ 
not  help  themselves ;  we  believe  also  that  the  most 
powerful  influence  which  could  be  brought  to  aid  a 
rigid  enforcement  of  such  a  law,  would  be  a  positive 
refusal  on  the  part  of  insurance  companies  to  accept 
risks  on  premises  wherein  the  exposed  wood  work 
was  not  properly  protected  by  plaster,  supported  by 
woven  wire  lathing.  This  would  impose  no  penalty 
upon  builders,  for  it  would  represent  such  a  mere 
trifle  in  increased  expense  that  an  evasion  coiSd 
justly  be  treated  as  criminal.  We  are  paying  too 
dearly,  even  in  the  houses  of  the  rich,  for  risky  build¬ 
ing.  Fewer  frescoes  and  more  attention  to  the  pro¬ 
tection  of  the  inmates  would  be  in  better  keeping 
with  our  claims  for  the  humanizing  influences  of  our 
nineteenth  century  civilization.

Building  and  Real  Estate  Notes. 

Mr.  H.  H.  Houston  has  given  a  handsome 
house  and  grounds,  in  Germantown,  to  the 
Episcopal  Home  for  the  Aged. 

The  work  of  demolishing  a  number  of  the 
old  buildings  at  Seventh  and  Alaska  streets  has 
been  determined  upon  by  the  owner,  Henry 
Rowland,  who  will  erect  on  the  site  a  large 
warehouse  60x40  feet,  built  of  brick. 

A  resolution  was  passed  by  the  Committee  of 
Superintendence  and  Police  of  the  Park  Com¬ 
mission  on  the  6th  inst  ,  asking  the  Board  to 
appropriats  $5,000  for  macadamizing  the  main 
drive  from  Lincoln  monument  to  Beacon  Light, 
which  will  no  doubt  be  done  at  an  early  day. 

It  is  understood  that  the  Anti-Cobden  Club, 
Germantown  road  and  Diamond  street,  is  look¬ 
ing  for  a  proper  site  whereon  to  erect  for  them¬ 
selves  a  fine  club  house;  also,  the  Northern 
National  Bank,  at  2121  Germantown  avenue,  is 
considering  the  question  of  erecting  a  building 
as  soon  as  a  site  can  be  secured. 

The  benevolence  of  the  Hebrews,  in  Phila¬ 
delphia,  keeps  apace  with  other  organizations 
of  a  like  nature.  They  are  now  contemplating 
the  erection  of  a  training  school,  and  halt  be¬ 
tween  two  opinions,  whether  to  alter  736  and 
738  South  Fourth  street,  or  to  build  a  new 
structure.  The  present  building  is  41x85  feet, 
and  could  be  altered  so  as  to  be  well  adapted 
for  the  purpose. 

Chas.  McCaul,  builder,  21  North  Eleventh 
street,  has  purchased  the  old  brewery,  621 
Cherry  street,  and  will  immediately  commence 
the  rebuilding  of  the  structure  by  raising  the 
floors,  placing  new  work  upon  the  interior,  in¬ 
troducing  freight  elevators,  steam  engine  and 
boilers,  and  placing  it  in  condition  generally 
for  manufacturing  purposes.  The  building  is 
40x115  feet,  and  the  cost  will  be  about  $10,000. 

Extensive  improvements  are  contemplated  to 
the  grounds  of  the  Tioga  Athletic  Association 
in  the  spring,  and  a  new  club  house  will  be 
erected. 

R.  C.  Ballinger,  contractor  and  builder, 
Lucas  building,  has  been  awarded  the  contract 
to  erect  the  Patrol  and  Mounted  Police  station 
at  Thirty-ninth  and  Warren  streets.  It  will  be 
two  stories  high,  built  of  brick  stone  trim¬ 
mings,  tile  roof,  steam  heat,  plate  glass,  electric 
work,  and  general  provision  for  twenty-two 
head  of  horses. 

P.  A.  B.  Widener  and  William  L.  Elkins  are 
at  the  head  of  a  syndicate  formed  for  the  pur¬ 
pose  of  purchasing  the  hospital  site  at  Twenty- 
second  and  Huntingdon  streets,  upon  which  it 
is  proposed  to  build  a  number  of  blocks  of  twQ 
and  three  story  houses. 


THE  RECORD  AND  GUIDE. 


The  “Gray  Invincibles,”  a  colored  military 
organization,  have  determined,  in  a  practical 
manner,  to  complete  the  effort  of  erecting  an 
armory  by  soliciting  contributions  and  aid  from 
the  public  in  general.  They  have  quite  a 
nueclus  in  the  tseasury,  around  which  they 
propose  to  gather  a  sum  sufficient.  The  indi¬ 
cations  are  that  they  will  purchase  a  lot  at 
Broad  and  Fitzwater  streets,  already  offered, 
and  erect  the  building  suitable  for  their  pur¬ 
poses. 

It  is  'reported,  upon  what  seems  to  be  good 
authority,  that  at  an  early  day  the  Philadelphia 
and  Reading  Railroad  will  utilize  the  entire 
block  extending  from  Willow  to  Noble,  Fifth 
to  Sixth  streets  and  erect  a  mammoth  market 
house  so  as  to  be  in  communication  with  all 
their  various  branches  of  road.  A  majority  of 
this  property  is  already  owned  by  this  company, 
and  they  are  now  endeavoring  to  negotiate  for 
the  remainder,  with  the  above  object  in  view, 
which,  if  successful,  will  prove  of  great  com¬ 
mercial  benefit  to  the  producers  living  along 
the  line  of  their  operation. 

Articles  of  incorporation  have  been  asked 
for  by  the  following  named  gentlemen,  well 
known  in  the  medical  profession,  for  the  pur¬ 
pose  of  establishing  a  hospital,  to  be  known  as 
the  “North  Philadelphia  Hospital”  for  treat¬ 
ment  of  all  medical  and  surgical  cases  without 
reference  to  creed,  condition  or  color  :  William 
G.  Howell,  M.  D.,  4255  Germantown  avenue; 
J.  K.  Cassell,  M.  D.,  4341  Germantown  avenue; 
Franklin  R.  Bower,  M.  D.,  3212  Germantown 
avenue;  W.  Brockbank.M.  D.,3945  Germantown 
avenue;  Peter  Hooper,  M.  D.,  1904  Tioga 
street.  As  yet  no  plans  have  matured  for  selec¬ 
tion  of  site  or  building  operation. 

Avalon  Beach  Improvement  Company  and 
the  Seven-Mile  Beach  Company  will  jointly 
make  considerable  impro'semente,  public  and 
private,  as  soon  as  the  bridge  over  Townsend’s 
inlet  at  Sea  Isle  is  finished.  It  is  pruposed  to 
open  a  grand  avenue  along  Twenty-fifth  street 
from  the  Ocean  to  Craven’s  inlet  upon  the 
thoroughfare  back  of  Seven-Mile  beach,  and 
build  a  wharf  100x100  feet  at  the  latter  place 
and  place  the  wharf  proper  under  cover,  thus 
affording  ample  protection  to  visitors  and  ex¬ 
cursionists.  Quite  an  impetus  will  be  given 
to  building  operations  at  both  places.  Among 
those  who  contemplate  so  doing  will  be  Geo. 
J.  Rommell,  104  Spruce  street;  Mrs.  Mary  I. 
Rambert,  1943  North  Thirteenth  street,  and  J. 
F.  Johnson,  2510  North  Fifth  street,  a  cottage. 
The  above  companies  will,  at  an  early  day,  re¬ 
sume  their  excursions  to  prospective  purchasers 
of  lots. 

At  the  meeting  of  Select  Council,  on  last 
Thursday,  ordinances  were  introduced  asking 
for  the  following  improvements :  To  condemn

Reasons  for  investing  in  the  securities  of  this 
Company  : 

First.  Because  it  has  had  thirty-five  years’  ex¬ 
perience  without  the  loss  of  a  dollar  to  a  single 
investor. 

Second.  Because  its  conservative  management 
is  insured  by  the  double  liability  of  its  stock¬ 
holders. 

Third.  Because  nearly  five  hnndred  of  the  most 
prominent  financial,  business  and  charitable  cor¬ 
porations,  including  about  sixty  savings  banks, 
fifty  universities,  colleges  and  academies,  seventy 
general  church  boards  and  churches,  and  twenty 
to  thirty  insurance  companies  have  invested  in 
.its  loans  for  many  years,  and  commend  them  to 
others. 

Fourth.  Because  these  loans  are  readily  nego¬ 
tiable,  easily  available  as  collateral,  and,  while  pay¬ 
ing  a  good  interest,  can  be  procured  at  par. 

Fifth.  Because  the  principal  and  interest  of 
every  loan  are  guaranteed  by  a  fund  amounting  to 
over  $3,000,000. 

Sixth.  Because  as  the  result  of  a  recent  most 
thorough  examination  as  to  the  financial  standing 
and  methods  of  our  Company,  by  a  firm  of  char¬ 
tered  accountants,  and  as  to  the  legality  of  our  or¬ 
ganization,  by  the  well-known  law  firm  of  Cary  & 
Whitridge,  of  New  York,  two  great  English  cor¬ 
porations,  the  “  Mortgage  Insurance  Corporation,” 
of  London,  England,  with  capital  of  $3,500,000,

SDAG-STONE 

PAVEMENT. 

for  Side- walks  and  Floors  is  conceded  to  be  the  best  pro¬ 
duction  of  the  present  century. 

Slag-Stone  when  properly  combined  with  the  best 
grades  of  Portland  Cement  produces  an  artificial  Stone 
superior  in  appearance,  toughness,  tensile  and  crushing 
strength  to  any  combination  known  to  modern  science. 
Its  durability  is  greater  than  the  best  Flag-Stone  and 
lor  that  reason  it  is  cheaper  than  brick. 

Being  a  non-absorbent  it  is  superior  for  Canneries, 
Slaughter  Houses,  Damp  Cellars,  Boiler  Houses,  Dye 
Houses  Etc. 

For  the  Cellars  of  Residences  it  expresses  the 
highest  standard  of  perfect  Sanitation  as  it  prevents  the 
escape  of  noxious  gases  from  the  underlying  soil,  and 
will  not  absorb  impurities.  It  prevents  dampness,  is 
easily  cleaned  and  renders  the  whole  house  more  com¬ 
fortable  and  healthful.

The  Handsomest  Piece  of  Stained  Glass 
Work  in  San  Diego,  California,  Made 
by  a  Philadelphia  House. 

Ten  years  ago,  it  would  have  been  impossible 
to  make  the  above  announcement,  because  it 
was  then  impossible  to  obtain  first  class  stained 
glass  work  in  this  city.  To  day,  Philadelphia 
can  compete  as  to  quality,  both  as  to  the  artistic 
as  well  as  the  mechanical,  with  any  city  in  the 
world.  The  stained  glass  interests  in  this  coun¬ 
try  continue  to  prosper  in  spite  of  the  hearty 
welcome  that  is  accorded  the  productions  of 
Munich  workmen,  owing  to  our  free  trade 
laws,  admitting  stained  glass  work  intended  for 
church  purposes  free  of  duty,  while  at  the  same 
time  it  imposes  the  highest  kind  of  a  tax  upon 
the  stained  raw  glass  which  our  workmen  in 
America  must  have  in  order  to  produce  the 
work,  as  there  is  no  glass  made  in  America  that 
is  suitable  for  the  work.  There  is  a  stronger  ap¬ 
peal  for  protection  to  the  American  stained  glass 
worker  in  the  following  letter  than  anything  we 
can  write.  We  give  it  in  its  entirety,  because 
the  subject  merits  constant  agitation  in  the  in¬ 
terest  of  a  great  American  industry,  and  be¬ 
cause  of  the  mawkish  sentiment  that  prompts 
the  few  wealthy  Americans  to  give  their  prefer¬ 
ence  to  foreign  stained  glass  work,  when  super¬ 
ior  work  can  be  had  in  their  own  country  : 
Board  of  Public  Works, 

San  Diego,  California, 
William  Reitb,  Esq., 

Phil  Help hia,  Pa. 

Dear  Sir  : — Enclosed  you  will  find  draft  for 
#374.72.  We  received  the  glass  in  first  class 
order  and  perfect  in  every  respect.  It  is  the 
handsomest  piece  of  stained  glass  work  of  its 
kind  in  the  city.  I  shall  take  pleasure  in 
recommending  your  work  to  all  parties  con¬ 
templating  building,  but  will  observe  one 
thing,  and  that  is  to  order  work  as  soon  as 
contracts  are  let,  to  avoid  delay,  as  a  good 
portion  of  time  is  consumed  in  correspondence 
and  shipment.  Trusting  I  will  send,  or  be  the 
means  of  sending  you  another  order  in  the 
near  future,  I  am 

Yours  Very  Truly, 

JOSEPH  FALKENHAN, 
Commissioner,  Board  of  Public  Works.

Refers  with  permission  to  William  M.  Siiigerl.y 
Proprietor  of  Phila.  “Record.” 

PHILADELPHIA,  WED’Y.  FEB.  19,  1890. 

For  the  convenience  of  members  of  the 
Master  Builders’  Exchange,  we  have  secured 
Box  No.  199  a'  that  place,  where  any  communi¬ 
cations  for  publication  may  be  left. 


Emigration  statistics  for  1889  show  manv 
important  changes.  Among  those  who  left 
Great  Britain,  the  official  figures  places  the 
United  States  as  having  received  93,000  English, 
57,000  Irish  and  1 7,000  Scotch.  Canada  received 
during  1889,  22,000  English,  2,000  Iiisli  and 
3,000  Scotch.  Australia  received  23,000  Eng¬ 
lish,  2,000  Irish  and  2,000  Scotch.  While  to 
South  Africa  and  all  other  known  places,  not 
mentioned  above,  25,000  English,  2,000  Irish 
ard  1,000 Scotch  people  emigrated.  It  is  claimed 
that  the  heavy  investments  of  English  mouey 
in  American  industries  is  the  true  secret  of  the 
greatly  increased  emigration  of  British  subjects 
to  this  country. 


IT  is  only  a  few  years  ago  that  a  colored 
politician  of  this  city  pointed  to  the  want  col¬ 
umn  of  the  Philadelphia  Ledger ,  and  said  that 
out  of  all  the  positions  offered  in  that  journal, 
his  people  were  mentally  capable  of  filling  but 
two— porter  and  coachman.  The  same  colored 
orator  must  now  feel  an  infinite  pride  in  the 
fact  that  the  pugilistic  arena  has  afforded  a 
new  and  profitable  calling  for  his  colored 
brethern.  The  many  recent  successes  achieved 
by  colored  aspirants  in  the  manly  art  is  not 
only  noticeable,  but  it  indicates  an  improved 
physical  status  for  the  colored  man,  who,  like 
his  white  brother  of  the  “  profession,”  is  will¬ 
ing  at  any  time  to  take  a  half  hour’s  hammer¬ 
ing  for  a  few  dollars  rather  than  follow  an  hon¬ 
est  and  legitimate  calling  to  a  successful  end. 

THE  Trade  School,  now  in  course  of  organi¬ 
zation  by  the  Master  Builders’  Exchange,  of  this 
city,  will  be  watched  with  more  than  usual  in¬ 


terest.  It  will  test  the  worth  of  practical  knowl¬ 
edge,  imparted  by  practical  men,  schooled 
under  the  pressure  of  necessity,  without  the  ac¬ 
companying  frills  and  theories  of  the  scholastic 
pedagogue,  who  is  nothing  if  not  problematical. 
It  will  place  its  scholars  on  the  plane  of  the  ap¬ 
prentice  fifty  years  ago,  in  one  sense,  while  in 
another  they  will  have  the  advantage  of  associa¬ 
tion  and  the  supervision  of  the  men  who  stand 
foremost  in  their  respective  trades  and  callings. 
No  enterprise  was  ever  commenced  under  more 
favorable  auspices,  for  the  members  of  the  Ex¬ 
change  are  not  only  unanimous  as  to  the  neces¬ 
sity  for  such  schools,  but  they  are  thoroughly  in 
earnest  as  to  the  success  of  this  one  ;  besides, 
which  they  recognize  the  fact  that  unless  vigor¬ 
ous  efforts  are  made  to  counteract  the  present 
arbitrary  ostracism  of  American  youth  from 
trade  learning  by  trade  unions,  the  American 
mechanic,  in  a  few  generations  at  the  most,  will 
have  become  a  person  to  be  remembered  as  a 
relic  of  antiquity  only.  The  patriotism  of  the 
Master  Builder’s  is  not  only  worthy  of  commen¬ 
dation,  but  the  school  itself  should  receive  the 
earnest  support  of  every  one  who  believes  that  an 
American  boy  should  have  a  chance  to  select 
and  acquire  a  knowledge  of  any  trade,  regard¬ 
less  of  trade  unions,  walking  delegates,  or  im¬ 
ported  influences  of  any  kind. 


The  paralysis  in  building  operations  seems 
to  continue,  and  from  all  sides  do  we  hear  com¬ 
plaint,  and  the  deaf  ear  of  the  Director  of  Pub¬ 
lic  Works  to  the  appeal  of  those  interested  in 
building  operations,  does  not  awaken  or  give 
response  by  attention  to  the  pressing  needs  of 
the  occasion.  In  the  First  Ward  alone,  during 
the  year  1889,  the  operations  of  one  builder 
gave  a  total  valuation  of  $400,000,  subject  to 
taxation,  and  thus  affording  revenue  to  the  city 
of  thousands  of  dollars,  and  the  sum  total  of 
improvement  in  the  way  of  gas  and  water 
mains  amounted  to  the  generous  sum  of  $86 
upon  the  ground  covered  by  this  builder’s  opera¬ 
tion.  The  same  gentleman  now  believes  he 
will  be  obliged  to  use  the  only  prerogative  left, 
which  will  be  to  summon  the  head  of  the  depart¬ 
ment  into  Court,  and  thereby  compel,  by  pro¬ 
cess  of  law,  a  fair  distribution  of  both  attention 
and  public  improvement  in  the  First  and 
Twenty-sixth  wards.  If  Gen.  Louis  Wagner, 
as  the  head  of  the  largest  business  department 
in  the  municipal  Government  of  our  city  per¬ 
formed  his  full  duty,  he  would  make  such  rec¬ 
ommendations  to  councils  as  would  enable 
them  to  legislate  judiciously  and  satisfactorily 
to  the  best  interests  of  those  who  rear  millions 
of  dollars  worth  of  taxable  property,  thus  in¬ 
creasing  not  only  the  wealth  of  our  city,  but 


the  revenue  upon  which  our  very  existence  as  a 
city  depends.  If  he  will  exercise  the  functions 
of  his  office  wisely,  he  can  duplicate  the  in¬ 
crease  derived  from  new  properties  over  that  of 
1889,  which,  in  round  numbers,  reached  the 
handsome  sum  of  nearly  $600,000.  At  the 
head  of  a  private  enterprise  of  his  own,  there  is 
not  the  slightest  doubt  but  he  would  devise 
ways  and  means  to  derive  the  largest  amount  of 
profit  and  advantage  possible.  This  duty  he 
owes  to  those  who  make  our  city  what  it  should 
be,  one  of  industry  and  one  ot  comfortable 
homes,  well  lighted,  well  paved,  and  the  sani¬ 
tary  measures  the  best  on  the  globe. 


Oe  all  the  civilized  countries  of  the  world,  the 
United  States  is  farther  behind  in  its  system  of 
road  making  than  any  other.  Bad  roads  in  this 
country  are  the  rule  and  not  the  exception,  and 
any  superiority  in  any  one  locality  may  show 
over  another  is  the  result  of  natural  advantages 
and  not  of  a  superior  system.  Of  course  we 
have  many  beautiful  and  well  cared  for  turn¬ 
pikes,  but  the  most  of  them  are  either  the  rel¬ 
ics  of  the  old  mail  coach  service  days,  or  are 
owned  or  controlled  by  corporations  that  find 
them  a  profitable  investment. 

The  principle  that  relegates  the  care  of 
roads  to  the  authorities  of  a  township  has  proven 
a  miserable  failure,  and,  although  copied  after 
the  successful  English  system, the  circumstances 
attending  road-making  in  this  country  are  an 
entirely  different  matter,  in  fact  there  is  neither 
the  same  material  always  conveniently  accessi¬ 
ble,  neither  is  there  the  same  rigid  supervision 
nor  the  same  incentive  owing  to  the  want  of 
the  same  density  of  population. 

As  a  fact  our  country  is  too  large  and  our 
population  too  much  scattered  to  admit  of  the 
English  system  ever  accomplishing  the  pur¬ 
poses  for  which  it  was  intended,  and  some  bet¬ 
ter  method  must  soon  be  adopted.  The  country 
is  sufficiently  advanced  to  demand  something 
better  in  the  way  of  roads  than  we  have  at  pres¬ 
ent,  and  the  only  feasible  outlook  for  relief,  is 
in  making  the  question  one  of  State  or  National 
importance. 

Appropriations  are  made  annually  by  both 
the  State  and  National  governments  for  public 
improvements;  and  if  there  is  a  question  of 
more  vital  importance  to  the  people  of  this 
country  than  this  one  of  good  roads,  we  do 
not  know  of  it,  neither  can  we  recognize  the 
justice  of  imposing  the  cost  of  road-making 
upon  individual  townships  when  in  reality 
their  condition  concerns  every  resident  in  the 
County  and  State,  if  not  those  of  the  whole 
country.  An  appropriation  is  easily  obtained 
for  the  improvement  of  navigation  in  Duck

creek,  and  yet  the  condition  of  Duck  creek  does 
not,  perhaps,  concern  a  half  dozen  persons.  If 
then  the  principle  of  distribution  of  expense 
represented  in  the  improvement  of  Duck  creek 
is  a  good  and  practical  one,  why  should  it  not 
be  applied  to  the  peoples’  highways  as  well  as 
creeks  ? 

Improvements  in  this  direction  would  be 
beneficial  in  many  ways.  It  would  inaugurate 
a  system  of  social,  political  and  business  inter¬ 
course  among  the  people  that  does  not  exist  at 
present.  It  would  certainly  lead  up  to  the 
breeding  of  horses  possessing  the  same  speed, 
greater  endurance  and  more  usefulness  than  the 
trotter  or  runner  of  the  present  day.  It  would 
recal  from  oblivion  the  old  time  roadside  inn, 
affording  refreshing  rest  for  traveler  and  horse. 
It  would  afford  a  new  source  of  diversion  and 
pleasure  to  a  large  number  who  would  make 
long  trips  into  the  country  if  the  roads  were  fit 
for  driving,  but  who  are  now  confined  to  a  few 
parks  with  their  usual  monotony  and  sameness 
year  in  and  year  out. 

We  believe  that  under  a  proper  system  any 
first  cost  of  construction  would  be  justifiable, 
for  in  many  cases  proper  material  would  have 
to  be  carried  by  rail  or  water  for  long  distances; 
but  if  roads  were  constructed  as  they  are  in 
England  they  would  last  for  hundreds  of  years, 
and  would  require  very  little  expense  to  keep 
them  in  good  condition.  Lasting  improve¬ 
ments  in  the  way  of  better  houses,  better  farms 
and  a  decided  advance  in  the  value  of  land, 
would  follow  as  certain  as  it  follows  the  com¬ 
ing  of  a  railroad. 

On  the  nth  instant,  the  Keystone  Adamant 
Plaster  Company’s  works,  Twenty-third  street, 
above  Race  street,  were  damaged  by  fire  to  the 
extent  of  about  $4,900,  which  was  almost  wholly 
covered  by  insurance.  We  are  glad  to  say  that 
the  enterprise  of  the  company,  under  the  able 
management  of  Mr.  Fender,  has  been  equal  to 
the  emergency,  and  they  find  themselves  at  this 
early  date  ready  to  fill  all  orders  that  may  be 
sent.  They  have  already  partially  rebuilt  the 
portion  burned,  and  the  alacrity  with  which 
they  have  resumed  the  thread  of  their  business 
relations,  is  certainly  commendable.

Recent  Decisions. 

In  Relation  To  Matters  Concerning  Real 
Estate  and  Commercial  Law. 

Decided  by  the  Supreme  Court  of  Pennsylvania. 

Assignment  of  Mortgage  .-—The  assignee  of 
a  mortgage  is  bound  10  make  inquiry  of  the 
mortg  gor  before  purchasing  the  mortgage,  and 
is  affected  with  notice  of  any  defense  bv  way  of 
payment,  or  growing  out  of  the  original  equi¬ 
ties  between  the  mortgagor  and  mortgagee, 
which  inquiry  would  have  brought  to  his  no¬ 
tice.—  Morgan's  Appeal ,  April  22d,  1889. 

Assignment  of  'Irade  Mark  .—While  every¬ 
one  is  entitled  to  affix  to  the  product  of  his  own 
manufacture  any  symbol  or  device  not  pre¬ 
viously  appro]  .riated,  and  to  use  the  same  as  a 
trade  mark,  and  to  have  his  property  in  said 
trade  mark  protected  from  iufringment  by  other 
parties,  yet  no  property  can  be  thus  acquired 
in  a  word,  mark  or  device,  used  as  a  trademark, 
which  denotes  merely  the  nature,  kinder  quali¬ 
ty  of  an  article;  or,  as  against  other  persons 
carrying  on  trade  therein,  in  the  name  of  a 
country  or  a  section  ot  country.  While  a  geo¬ 
graphical  name  may,  perhaps,  in  some  cases, 
or  under  some  circumstances,  be  used  as  a  trade 
mark,  yet  when  the  article  to  which  it  is  ap¬ 
plied  is  the  product  of  the  place  named,  the 
term  cannot  be  used  as  a  trade  mark  by  one  to 
the  exclusion  of  others,  owners  of  like  products 
of  the  same  place. 

Trade  marks  are  the  proper  subject  of  assign¬ 
ment,  to  the  extent,  at  least,  that  unless  re¬ 
served  they  pass  with  an  assignment  of  busi¬ 
ness,  and  the  assignment  by  one  partner  of  all 
his  interest  in  a  firm  to  his  copartners  will  carry 
with  it  the  exclusive  use  of  the  trade  mark  of 
the  firm  .--Laughman's  Appeal,  Jan.  3 r,  1889. 

Condition  : — 1'he  words,  “the  said  piece  of 
ground,  to  be  used  for  milling  or  manufactur 
ing  puiposes  only,”  in  a  deed  conveying  a  tract 
of  land  and  a  water  right,  are  not  a  covenant  on 
the  part  of  the  grantee  to  erect  a  mill  of  any 
kind  upon  the  property. 

A  grantor  has  no  legal  right  to  complain  be¬ 
cause  his  grantee  does  not  exercise  all  the 
rights  and  privileges  which  he  purchased  and 
paid  fo". 

A  covenant  to  use  property  for  manufactur¬ 
ing  purposes  implies  the  right  to  use  it  for  all 
purposes  incident  to  such  object. — Madore's 
Appeal ,  May  14  1889 

Husband  and  Wife When  a  testatrix,  who 
is  a  marrkd  woman,  dies  without  issue,  and 
intestate  as  to  a  portion  of  her  property,  her 
husband,  by  electing  to  take  against  the  will, 
claims,  under  the  Act  of  May  4th,  1S55,  one- 
half  of  the  personal  property  as  to  which  his 
wife  died  testate,  and  the  whole  of  that  whereof 
she  died  intestate.  His  right  is  limited  to  one- 
half  of  the  whole  estate. — Lee's  Appeal,  Jan. 
17,  1889. 

Mortgage: — The  holder  of  a  legal  title  to 
real  estate  which  is  in  effect  a  mortgage,  may, 
in  turn,  mortgage  that  title,  and  by  virture 
thereof  the  mortgagee  takes  as  security  all  his 
mortgagor’s  title,  subject  only  to  the  equity  of 
redemption  existing  against  such  mortgagor. 

A,  purchased  land  at  public  sale,  partly  with 
cash  furnished  by  R.  In  order  to  secure  B,  the 
title  was  taken  in  his  name  and  an  agreement 
entered  into  that  B,  should  convey  to  A,  wher  - 
ever  A,  repaid  him  the  cash  advanced.  A  took 
exclusive  possession  of  the  land;  B,  afterwards 
executed  a  mortgage  to  C,  who  had  construc¬ 
tive  notice  from  A’s  occupancy  of  the  land  as 
to  his  title  In  a  proceeding  by  scire  facias  by 
C  against  B  upon  the  mortgage. 

Held  that  C,  was  entitled  to  judgment  for  the 
full  amount  of  his  mortgage,  but  subject  to  be 
released  and  discharged  upon  payment  by  A,  of 
the  amount  due  by  him  to  B — Brooke  vs. 
Bordner,  March  6,  1889.

As  indicated  in  this  Journal,  on  December  n, 
1889,  the  probability  seems  near  a  realization 
that  the  U.  S.  Mint  will,  in  the  near  future,  be 
removed  to  the  point  suggested  by  us  at  that 
time,  as  it  has  received  the  approval  of  110  less 
a  person  than  Hon.  William  Windom,  Secretary 
of  the  Treasury,  upon  a  personal  inspection 
made  on  the  14th  inst.,  and  it  is  now  settled 
that  he  will,  upon  his  return  to  Washington, 
urge  upon  Congress  to  pass  the  bill  oftered  by 
Hon.  Henry  H.  Bingham,  during  the  present 
session,  and  who  will,  we  are  assured,  leave  no¬ 
thing  undone  to  secure  the  desired  result  in 
securing  this  much  needed  public  improvement.

has  stood  the  severest  tests  and  in  no  case  has  it 
ever  failed. 

It  is  Fire  Proof,  as  well  as  Damp  and  Moisture 
proof.  It  never  expands  or  contracts  ;  it  is  not  af¬ 
fected  by  Steam,  Acids,  Gasses,  Vapors  or  other 
injurious  influences,  that  would  render  a  lmtal  roof 
perfectly  useless  in  a  lew  weeks.  It  is  air-tight  and 
is  not  affected  by  atmospheric  influences  of  any 
kind  ;  it  is  durable  and  reliable  in  winter  and  sum¬ 
mer,  and  positively  requires  no  care  or  attention 
whatever.  It  will  out-last  the  BUILDING  and  for 
Factories,  Chemical  Works,  Boiler  and  Engine- 
houses,  Depots,  Factories,  Mills  and  Warehouses, 
it  is  without  an  equal.  It  costs  less  than  tin  or 
slate,  requires  no  painting,  can  be  walked  on  with¬ 
out  injury  and  must  not  be  considered  in  the  same 
light  and  prejudice  usually  bestowed  upon  what  are 
known  as  Tar  Roofs. 

BEWARE  OF  IMITATIONS,  for  the  durability  of 
our  Roofing  is  not  only  owing  to  our  great  care  in 
laying  on  a  roof  ;  but  also  in  the  scientific  prepara¬ 
tion  of  the  Material  we  use.  Circulars  and  testimo¬ 
nials  sent  upon  application.

attention.  Mr.  Theophilus  P.  Chandler,  the 
architect,  can  at  least  hold  himself  responsible 
for  having  added  lustre  to  his  own  fame,  and  to 
that  of  Philadelphia  at  the  same  time. 

Our  summary  this  week  of  real  estate  trans¬ 
fers  is  for  but  five  days,  as  Saturday,  February 
22d,  was  a  legal  holiday.  The  showing,  how¬ 
ever,  is  strong  enough  to  indicate  considerable 
activity  notwithstanding  the  general  impres¬ 
sion  of  dullness.  The  figures  are  237  transfers, 
amounting  to  $842,427.67,  against  which  we 
quote  our  figures  for  the  same  week  of  last 
year,  the  number  of  transfers,  237,  being  the 
same,  but  the  amount,  $1,302,516,  being  con¬ 
siderably  more.

The  amenities  of  business  life  were  never  bet¬ 
ter  exemplified  than  in  the  splendid  testimonial 
graciously  tendered  on  the  18th  instant  by  the 
members  of  the  Master  Builders’  Exchange,  of 
this  city,  to  the  retiring  president,  Mr.  David  A. 
Woelpper.  President  Stacy  Reeves  made  the 


presentation  speech,  the  gift  being  accepted  by 
Mr.  Woelpper  in  a  manner  that  impressed  every 
one  present  with  his  high  appreciation  of  the 
testimonial  and  the  generous  and  kindly  feeling 
that  prompted  it-  The  event  in  itself  ie  perhaps 
more  noticeable  from  the  fact  that  the  organi¬ 
zation  is  still  in  its  infancy,  Mr.  Woelpper  hav¬ 
ing  been  its  second  president. 


A  splendid  field  is  open  for  the  study  of 
what  might  be  termed  acoustic  construction. 
As  it  stands,  now  the  architect  approximates 
what  he  considers  the  safest  and  best  material, 
which  is  a  success  sometimes  but  oftener  a  mis¬ 
erable  failure  and  disappointment.  Experi¬ 
ments  are  dangerous  and  expensive.  A  hall 
that  has  proven  to  be  a  failure  in  acoustics  is 
such  an  expensive  luxury  that  no  man  wants 
it.  It  is  useless  for  the  purposes  intended,  and 
no  matter  how  beautiful  there  are  but  few  pur¬ 
poses  for  which  it  can  be  used,  and  those  gen¬ 
erally  of  such  a  character  thai  it  must  become 
seriously  dilapidated  before  an  owner  would 
consent  to  the  sacrilege. 

Beryt  is  a  name  given  to  what  may  be 
termed  a  solution  of  Marble,  or  a  combination 
of  materials  chemically  treated  by  a  process  in¬ 
vented  by  Friedrich  Beer,  sculptor  and  a  native 
of  Aus  ria.  It  is  stated  that  it  can  be  moulded 
into  any  shape,  the  same  as  plaster-of-Paris,  the 
cost  being  about  the  same.  It  is  claimed  that 
Beryt,  after  drying,  becomes  as  hard  and  as 
beautiful  as  marble,  and  is  particularly  useful 
for  house  ornamentation,  and  can  be  put  to  even 
more  practical  purposes,  such  as  floors,  external 
decorations,  baths,  etc.  The  patent  and  secret 
are  in  the  hands  of  a  French  company,  and  the 
manufacture  of  Be^yt,  on  a  large  scale,  is  to  be 
commenced  at  once,  at  least,  it  is  so  stated. 


The  presumption  of  the  managers  of  the 
railroad  companies  entering  the  city  of  Wash¬ 
ington,  together  with  their  wholesale  usurpa¬ 
tion  of  public  lands  within  the  District  of  Colum¬ 
bia,  has  brought  down  upon  them  no  small 
amount  of  opposition,  that  is  likely  to  cause  the 
companies  a  large  amount  of  trouble  and  con¬ 
siderable  expense.  Senator  Ingalls  has  stig¬ 
matized  the  conduct  of  the  railroad  companies 
as  disgraceful,  amounting  to  almost  a  crime,  as 
by  the  occupation  of  large  portions  of  the  area 
of  the  District  by  railroad  corporations  under 
present  conditions,  vast  uumbers  of  people 
have  had  their  property  practically  destroyed 
and  confiscated  in  that  portion  of  the  city  lying 
to  the  northeast,  southeast  and  south  of  the 
Capitol.  Senator  Morrill  has  introduced  a  hill 
providing  for  a  new  entrance  into  Washington 


for  the  railroads,  and  providing  also  for  a  new 
union  depot  on  the  public  reservation  at  Vir¬ 
ginia  and  Maryland  avenues.  It  would ‘seem 
from  this  that  our  own  old  friend,  the  Pennsyl¬ 
vania  Railroad  Company,  which  has  now  un¬ 
der  its  control  the  Baltimore  and  Potomac 
Railroad,  is  working  its  familiar  little  heathen 
Chinee  game  of  obstruction  and  absorption  on 
both  the  property  and  rights  of  the  citizens  of 
Washington,  as  well  as  the  public  domain  em¬ 
braced  within  the  area  of  the  National  Capitol. 

With  the  ardent  love  and  sympathizing  ef¬ 
forts  of  a  few  Philadelphia  Councilmen  the 
Pensy  might  have  a  fair  chance  to  gobble  the 
Capitol  and  other  National  buildings;  but 
there  is  no  way  of  utilizing  these  gentlemen 
in  Washington,  and  that  seems  to  be  the  only 
impediment. 


Architect  John  Frazer,  of  Washington,  D. 
C.,  has  already  submitted  a  beautiful  design  for 
the  proposed  memorial  arch,  to  be  erected  in 
Fairmount  Park.  As  the  structure  is  intended 
to  commemorate  the  most  important  epoch  of 
the  new  world’s  history,  and  is  to  be  a  National 
affair,  it  is  expected  that  the  design  should  be 
comprehensive  as  well  as  magnificent.  Mr. 
Frazer’s  design  is  intended  to  symbolize  the  first 
thirteen  states  that  entered  the  Confederation, 
and  for  that  purpose  an  arch  is  allotted  to  each 
state,  that  of  Pennsylvania  being  the  central  or 
main  arch,  the  idea  being  to  convey  the  full 
meaning  of  its  well  known  title  of  the  Keystone 
state.  It  is  more  imposing  than  the  rest,  being 
surmounted  by  a  high  tower  or  dome  300  feet 
high,  supporting  the  Goddess  of  Liberty.  The 
arches  on  the  extreme  ends  of  the  structure  are 
also  to  have  towers  supporting  figures  symboliz¬ 
ing  the  respective  characteristics  of  the  various 
states.  Mr.  Frazer’s  design  provides  for  a  struc¬ 
ture  552  feet  long.  No  plans  have  been  ac¬ 
cepted,  and  the  architects  of  the  country  will 
probably  be  invited  to  submit  designs  for  com¬ 
petition. 


An  Association  of  the  Operative  Builders  of 
Philadelphia  took  permanent  form  at  a  meeting 
held  on  the  evening  of  the  20th  instant,  at  S.  E. 
corner  Broad  and  Columbia  avenue.  W.  T.  B. 
Roberts  was  elected  president  of  the  organiza¬ 
tion,  and  it  is  now  understood  that  its  work  will 
be  to  remedy,  by  united  effort,  some  of  the  glar¬ 
ing  evils  that  to-day  stand  as  impediments  to 
the  prosperity  of  the  city,  and  to  those,  who  by 
industry,  toil  and  the  investment  of  their  money, 
labor  to  build  up  and  to  make  Philadelphia  the 
greatest  city  of  individual  homes  on  this  Con¬ 
tinent.  The  fees  and  permit  system,  as  well  as 
superfluous  inspectorships  now  introduced  into

THE  RECORD  AND  GUIDE. 


the  municipal  government,  and  under  whose 
ban  all  those  having  business  concerning  real 
estate  and  building  operations  must  pass  before 
they  can  perfect  arrangements  to  prosecute  their 
work,  are  some  of  the  great  and  crying  evils  of 
which  much  complaint  is  made.  These,  coupled 
with  the  tardiness  upon  the  part  of  the  Depart¬ 
ment  of  Public  Works,  and  its  chief,  Louis 
Wagner.  These  gentlemen  urge  as  the  neces¬ 
sity  for  the  combination  of  all  interested  in  cor¬ 
recting  the  evils,  and  it  is  for  the  purpose  of  de¬ 
vising  ways  and  means  to  better  their  condition 
that  they  have  to  a  man  banded  together. 
They  do  not  propose  to  revolutionize  all  the 
forms  of  the  departments  and  to  comply  with 
none  ;  but  they  do  intend  to  ask  the  repeal  of 
obnoxious  and  useless  ordinances  by  Councils, 
and  appeal  to  them  to  pass  such  measures  as 
will  aid  them  in  pushing  forward  their  combined 
interests,  and  it  is  of  the  highest  importance 
that  the  heads  of  the  minor  divisions  should  in¬ 
vent  ways  to  facilitate  without  additional  expen¬ 
ses  the  detailed  work  coming  under  their  super¬ 
vision.  Salaries  should  be  paid  to  inspectors  by 
the  city,  and  in  no  case  should  they  be  levied 
upon  those  who  may  apply  for  either  a  regular 
or  a  special  inspection  of  such  work  as  apper¬ 
tain  to  the  building  interests  orthe  grading  of  pri¬ 
vate  and  public  streets.  It  is  these  wrongs  and 
a  multiplicity  of  others,  equally  as  bad,  that  is 
desired  to  be  remedied,  and  by  a  united  and 
strong  effort,  it  is  to  be  hoped  that  those  who 
are  to  blame  in  the  matter  will  aid  in  the  cure. 


A  Luminous  wall  paper,  or  rather  a  tough  wall 
paper  on  which  luminous  paint  can  be  placed, 
is  the  latest  thing  in  Austria.  It  is  intended  for 
dark  stairways  and  entrys,  and  is  said  to  be  a 
decided  success.  The  durability  of  the  luminous 
qualities  of  the  paint  is  secured  by  varnishing. 
An  Austrian  firm  is  now  making  luminous  paint, 
to  be  sold  at  fifty  cents  per  pound,  or  about  one- 
sixth  the  price  of  the  English  article. 


Look  Out  For  Your  Postal  Cards. 

The  new  postal  card  is  the  worst  kind  of  a 
fraud  ;  the  paper  is  so  smooth  and  hard  and 
thin,  that  two  cards  will  frequently  stick  to¬ 
gether.  As  a  consequence  the  sender  will  inno¬ 
cently  write  his  message  on  one  card  and  the 
address  on  another.  In  transmission  the  cards 
become  separated,  and  some  one  receives  a 
meaningless  postal,  containing  his  address  only. 
We  have  already  received  a  half  dozen  such 
postal  cards,  no  doubt  to  our  own  detriment  and 
the  annoyance  of  the  sender. 


A  $10,000  Verdict  Against  the  Pennsyl- 
Railroad  Company. 

On  Thursday  last  the  case  of  William  Jones 
vs.  the  Pennsylvania  Railroad  Company,  in¬ 
volving  the  rights  of  property  owners  against 
railroad  companies  for  damages  for  deprecia¬ 
tion  to  property,  was  tried  in  Common  Pleas 
No.  4,  and  resulted  in  a  verdict  for  Jones,  of 
$io,ooo.  The  plaintiff  owned  a  blacksmith 
shop  and  dwelling  at  Twenty-second  and  Fil¬ 
bert  streets. 


Vast  Deposits  of  Phosphate  Discovered  in 
Florida. 

Mr.  W.  G.  J?ischer,  the  piano  dealer,  1221 
Chestnut  street,  this  city,  has  shown  us  a 
letter,  stating  that  vast  deposits  of  rich  phos¬ 
phates  have  been  discovered  on  the  Withla  - 
coochee  river,  near  Duunellon,  Marion  county , 


Fla.  Already  over  one  and  a  half  million  of 
dollars  have  been  invested  in  lands,  and  it  is 
said  the  excitement  is  intense.  The  deposits  are 
said  to  be  the  richest  and  most  extensive  ever 
found  in  any  part  of  the  world.  The  deposits 
can  be  worked  at  a  minimum  of  cost,  as  dredg¬ 
ing  is  unnecessary. 


A  Novel  Sub-Marine  Plow. 

The  channel  of  the  Sacramento  river,  Cali¬ 
fornia,  is  to  be  deepened  by  plowing.  A  mas¬ 
sive  sub-marine  plow,  one  hundred  feet  long, 
thirty-five  feet  wide  and  twelve  feet  deep  is  be¬ 
ing  constructed  at  San  Francisco  for  the  pur¬ 
pose.  It  is  to  be  propelled  by  three  engines  of 
54  h.  p.,  and  will  travel  at  the  rate  of  twelve 
miles  an  hour,  clearing  as  it  goes  a  space  of  the 
river  bottom  six  feet  deep  and  forty  feet  wide, 
the  mud  and  sand  being  pushed  to  the  banks  on 
either  side.  Three  great  cone  shaped  screens, 
40  feet  long,  with  blades  two-and-a-half  feet 
deep  at  the  base  and  tapering  as  they  turn 
around  a  *large  central  cone  to  three  inches  in 
depth,  are  to  be  fixed  to  the  bottom  of  the  plow. 
It  is  stated  that  by  working  up  and  down  the 
river  with  the  help  of  the  current,  the  debris  is 
easily  removed.

SUAG--STONE 

PAVEMENT. 

for  Side-walks  and  Floors  is  conceded  to  be  the  best  pro¬ 
duction  of  the  present  century. 

Slag-Stone  when  properly  combined  with  the  best 
grades  of  Portland  Cement  produces  an  artificial  Stone 
superior  in  appearance,  toughness,  tensile  and  crushing 
strength  to  any  combination  known  to  modern  science. 
Its  durability  is  greater  than  the  best  Flag  Stone  and 
for  that  reason  it  is  cheaper  than  brick. 

Being  a  non-absorbent  it  is  superior  for  Canneries, 
Slaughter  Houses,  Damp  Cellars,  Boiler  Houses,  Dye 
Houses  Etc. 

For  the  Cellars  of  Residences  it  expresses  the 
highest  standard  of  perfect  Sanitation  as  it  prevents  the 
escape  of  noxious  gases  from  the  underlying  soil,  and 
will  not  absorb  impurities.  It  prevents  dampness,  is 
easily  cleaned  and  renders  the  whole  house  more  com¬ 
fortable  and  healthful. 

ALSO 

Coal-Tar-Concrete  Work  carefully  and  properly 
laid  in  City  or  Country,  in  the  most  substantial  manner 
and  at  prices  in  keeping  with  our  guarantee  for  first- 
class  work.

PHILADELPHIA,  WED’Y.  MARCH  5,  1890. 

For  the  convenience  of  members  of  the 
Master  Builders’  Exchange,  we  have  secured 
Box  No.  199  at  that  place,  where  any  communi- 
cations  for  publication  may  be  left. 


Three  hundred  and  twenty-five  new  manu¬ 
facturing  enterprises,  according  to  the  Atlanta 
Southern  Industrial  Record,  were  inaugurated 
in  the  ten  cotton  States  during  the  two  weeks 
preceding  February  20.  These  enterprises  re¬ 
present  a  capital  investment  of  over  $6,000,000, 
and  do  not  include  the  many  new  railroad  enter¬ 
prises,  involving  many  millions  of  capital  and 
developing  a  vast  country,  rich  in  minerals,  coal, 
timber  and  agriculture.  The  Record  asserts  that 
industrial  development  is  spontaneously  spring¬ 
ing  up  all  over  the  whole  South. 


The  trustees  of  the  I.  V.  Williamson  School 
Fund  are  making,  we  think,  a  very  serious  mis¬ 
take  in  the  beginning.  No  one  will,  of  course, 
question  their  right  to  exact  the  greatest  possi¬ 
ble  return  for  every  dollar  they  expend,  in  fact 
they  could  very  justly  be  considered  recreant  to 
their  trust  were  they  not  disposed  to  do  so,  but 
the  fact  is  they  have  undertaken  a  very  import¬ 
ant  task,  that  of  erecting  a  number  of  large  build¬ 
ings  requiring  care,  skill,  experience  and  last,  but 
not,  by  any  means,  the  least,  business  integrity 
on  the  part  of  the  contractors  Their  proposed 
method  of  juggling  with  the  question  of  con¬ 
tracts  may  save  a  few  dollars,  but  at  a  costly 
detriment,  perhaps,  to  quality,  and  that  too 
without  questioning  the  ability  of  their  archi¬ 
tects  to  protect  their  interests  at  every  stand¬ 
point.  The  formation  of  Master  Builders’  Ex¬ 
changes  and  their  out-growth,  the  Association 
of  National  Master  Builders  was  for  the  pur¬ 
pose  of  placiug  the  craft  on  a  higher  plane, 
eliminating  rascally  methods  to  the  protection 


of  both  owners  and  builders,  and  in  order  to 
still  further  elevate  the  calling  and  promote 
harmony  between  architects  and  builders  a 
code  of  rules,  laws  and  ethics  was  agreed 
upon  between  a  representative  body  of  archi¬ 
tects  and  an  equally  representative  body  of 
builders  forming,  for  practical  purposes,  a 
convention.  These  rules,  which  have  now 
become  the  accepted  method,  were  not  estab¬ 
lished  for  the  purpose  of  exacting  higher  prices 
for  work,  for  the  spirit  of  competition  is  as  hot 
between  builders  to-day  as  it  ever  was,  and  as 
much  work  can  be  had  for  a  dollar  to-day  as 
could  be  obtained  before  the  rules  were  ac¬ 
cepted,  but  they  were  purposely  established  in 
order  that  just  such  men  as  the  Williamson 
trustees  might  be  able  to  enter  into  contracts 
for  extensive  operations  with  the  assurance,  at 
least,  that  they  were  dealing  with  reputable 
business  men  who  were  equal  to  their  obligations, 
and  whose  reputation  for  business  integrity  was 
equal  to  their  own.  Another  object — and  it  was 
declared  in  unmistakable  terms — was  to  promote 
better  building,  and  there  is  certainly  sufficient 
evidence  in  our  own  city  that  the  influence  of 
the  Master  Builders’  Exchange,  in  that  direc¬ 
tion,  has  been  forcibly  expressed. 

The  Williamson  Trust  must  know  that  repu¬ 
table,  conscientious  men  of  any  calling  avoid, 
as  far  as  possible,  what  is  known  as  cut-throat 
competition,  and  that  means,  in  plain  terms,  that 
men  with  a  business  reputation  to  care  for  and  a 
promising  business  future  before  them ,  will  not 
compete  against  men  who  submit  bids  for  work 
at  prices  ruinously  low,  and  whose  only  escape 
from  disaster  and  loss  is  through  whatever 
genius  they  may  posess  for  robbing  the  owner 
and  paying  no  one.  We  do  not  wish  to  be 
■understood  as  saying  that  reputable  and  reliable 
contractors,  as  well  as  sub-contractors,  cannot 
be  found  even  without  the  pale  of  the  Master 
Builders’  Exchange,  for  it  w’ould  be  lamentable 
were  it  the  fact,  but  we  do  assert  that  the  stand¬ 
ard  for  business  integrity  necessary  to  obtain  a 
membership  in  the  Exchange  is  worth  some¬ 
thing,  even  to  the  trustees  of  the  I.  V.  Wil'iam- 
son  School  Fund,  and  they  will  perhaps  learn  by 
experience,  if  it  has  not  already  been  made  ap¬ 
parent  to  them,  that  there  is  a  healthy  atmos¬ 
phere  surrounding  a  building  conscientiously 
constructed  by  those  who  aim  to  elevate  their 
calling  through  legitimate  means,  and  who,  for 
the  sake  of  legitimacy  and  their  own  self  re¬ 
spect,  prefer  to  relegate  the  chances  of  making 
a  little  money  to  others,  rather  than  stultify 
either  themselves  or  their  organization.  It  is  to 
be  hoped,  however,  for  the  benefit  of  the  pro¬ 
posed  school  pl^nt,  that  the  present  difficulty 
will^be  adjusted,  and  that  those  who  have  with 


drawn  their  bids  will  be  publicly  invited  to  re¬ 
new  them,  for  as  it  stands  now,  the  members  of 
the  Exchange  can  better  afford  to  lose  every 
possible  chance  for  profitable  contracts  rather 
than  vitiate  the  strength  of  their  organizat'on. 


Valuable  Oil  Paintings  at  Auction. 

Probably  the  most  interesting  collection  of  oil 
paintings  that  has  been  offered  at  auction  in  this 
city  for  some  time  will  be  sold  on  Wednesday, 
Thursday  and  Friday  evenings  of  this  week  The 
collection  is  the  property  of  Mr.  Chas.  Rode,  of 
New  York,  a  connoisseur  of  considerable  repu¬ 
tation.  The  master-pieces  of  such  men  as 
Lange,  Detti,  Piot,  Perboyre,  Herpfer,  and 
others,  are  not  only  plenty,  but  many  of  them 
are  particularly  noticeable  as  gems  rarely  seen 
in  the  auction  room.

Slag-Stone  Composition 

ROOF1MO! 

has  stood  the  severest  tests  and  in  no  case  has  it 
ever  failed. 

It  is  Fire  Proof,  as  well  as  Damp  and  Moisture 
proof.  It  never  expands  or  contracts  ;  it  is  not  af¬ 
fected  by  Steam,  Acids,  Gasses,  Vapcrs  or  other 
injurious  influences,  that  would  render  a  uutaj  roof 
perfectly  useless  in  a  lew  weeks.  It  is  air-tight  and 
is  not  affected  by  atmospheric  influences  of  any 
kind  ;  it  is  durable  and  reliable  in  winter  and  sum¬ 
mer,  and  positively  requires  no  care  or  attention 
whatever.  It  will  out-last  the  BUILDING  and  for 
Factories,  Chemical  Works,  Boiler  and  Engine- 
houses,  Depots,  Factories,  Mills  and  Warehouses, 
it  is  without  an  equal.  It  costs  less  than  tin  or 
slate,  requires  no  painting,  can  be  walked  on  with¬ 
out  injury  and  must  not  be  considered  in  the  same 
light  and  prejudice  usually  bestowed  upon  what  are 
known  as  Tar  Roofs. 

BEWARE  OF  IMITATIONS,  for  the  durability  of 
our  Roofing  is  not  only  owing  to  our  great  care  in 
laying  on  a  roof  ;  but  also  in  the  scientific  prepara¬ 
tion  of  the  Material  we  use.  Circulars  and  testimo¬ 
nials  sent  upon  application.

is  only  next  in  importance  to  the  foundation. 

A  good  Roof  can  only  be  obtained  by  the  selec¬

I  A  MAN  MAY  SUFFER 

From  MENTAL  OBLIQUITY,  and  not  know  it. 

A  loss  of  energy  is-known  as  LAZINESS,  and  while  laziness 
is  distinguishable,  mental  obliquity  can  only  be  recognized  in  the  man 
who  fails  in  mental  grasp  or  in  that  power  to  direct  his  efforts  to  profit¬ 
able  channels  in  trade.  Smith  works  harder  than  Jones,  and  yet  he 
cannot  succeed.  The  reason  is,  Jones  uses  his  brains,  while  Smith  de¬ 
pends  upon  his  legs. 

Jones  sits  in  his  office-chair,  carefully  peruses  the  Philadelphia 
$  Real  Estate  Record  and  Builders’  Guide,  makes  his  memoranda  from  its 

*  mass  of  weekly  building  news  as  to  who  will  need  his  wares,  his  skill, 

his  services,  quietly  presents  himself,  secures  a  hearing,  if  not  a  com 
tract ;  while  all  the  time,  poor  Smith  is  hurrying  and  scurrying  around  4 

trying  to  find  out  a  few  pointers  that  Jones  already  knew  before  he  left  ^ 

his  office. 

Smith  wastes  fifty  dollars’  worth  of  energy  in  his  efforts  to  glean 
information,  that  cost  Jones  about  nine-and-a-half  cents  to  find  out 
beforehand. 

Jones  subscribes  for  this  Journal,  Smith  doesn’t,  and  perhaps 
never  will. 

Smith’s  are  plenty,  yet  there  are  lots  of  Joneses. 

A  refusal  to  subscribe  for  this  Journal  is  a  sure  evidence  of  men¬ 
tal  obliquity.

PHILADELPHIA,  WED’Y.  MARCH  12,  1890. 


For  the  convenience  of  members  of  the 
Master  Builders’  Exchange,  we  have  secured 
Box  No.  199  at  that  place,  where  any  communi¬ 
cations  for  publication  may  be  left. 


A  new  Pipe  Line  Company,  with  a  capital  of 
#50.000,000,  it  is  said  is  being  organized  and 
will  erect  refineries  at  Findlay,  Lima,  Cygnet, 
Delphos  and  Upper  Sandusky,  Ohio.  The  com¬ 
pany  is  composed  of  Milwaukee,  Chicago  and 
Pittsburg  capitalists. 


There  is  no  enquiry  for  sites  for  buildings 
for  industrial  purposes,  in  fact  there  is  some 
disposition  to  force  the  sale  of  those  that  are 
offered,  this  would  indicate  considerable  de¬ 
pression  among  many  of  the  manufacturing  inte¬ 
rests.  There  is  no  disguising  the  fact,  that  the 
carpet  mills  are  suffering  from  over  production, 
and  no  increase  in  the  number  of  carpet  plants 
can  be  expected  for  some  time  to  come. 


The  New  York  Fire  Commissioners  have  re¬ 
ported  that  there  are  eighty-one  hotels,  includ¬ 
ing  some  of  the  best  in  the  city,  which  have  en¬ 
tirely  ignored  the  law  providing  for  the  escape 
of  guests,  in  case  of  fire.  The  punishment  for 
the  violation  of  the  law  is  one  years’  imprison¬ 
ment,  or  $1,000  fine,  or  both.  It  would  be  in¬ 
teresting  to  know  how  the  Philadelphia  Hotel- 
keepers  are  conforming  with  our  own  laws. 


IE  any  proper  estimate  as  to  the  outlook  for 
the  year  1890  can  be  based  upon  the  transfers  of 
real  estate,  there  is  certainly  no  cause  for  alarm, 
for  notwithstanding  the  fact  that  for  the  week 
ending  Saturday,  March  2,  1889  was  unusually 
heavy,  the  report  showing  300,  amounting  to 
$1,689,312.67,  the  transfers  made  during  the 


same  week  this  year  (i.  e.  ending  Saturday, 
March  1st),  are  largely  in  excess,  the  figures 
showing’  351  transfers  representing  a  value  of 
$2,292,072.44,  a  difference  in  favor  of  1890  of  51 
trasfers,  and  a  money  value  of  $602,  759.77. 


The  question  as  to  whether  wood-work  con¬ 
tinuously  exposed  to  the  heat  of  furnaces  or 
steam,  will  catch  fire,  can  no  longer  be  regarded 
as  an  open  one.  It  is  certainly  well  settled  that 
most  wood-work  in  proximity  to  hot-air  pipes, 
unless  protected  with  Woven  Wire,  or  some 
other  fire  preventive  material,  is  extremely  dan¬ 
gerous,  now  also  comes  the  intelligence  that  the 
steam-pipes  connected  with  the  radiators  in  the 
debtor's  room  of  the  Raymond  street  jail,  Brook¬ 
lyn,  recently  set  fire  to  the  wood-work  in  the 
wall,  there  is  not  the  least  doubt  but  that  the 
fire  was  caused  by  the  steam-pipes,  as  there  had 
been  no  light  or  fire  in  the  room. 


The  Electrical  Manufacturing  Establishment 
lately  at  137  N.  Seventh  street,  Philadelphia, 
conducted  by  Chas.  M.  Rhodes,  has  removed  to 
918-20-22  Vine  street,  and  now  re-organized  un¬ 
der  the  title  of  The  Rhodes’  Manufacturing  Co., 
is  prepared  with  greater  and  enlarged  facilities 
to  manufacture  all  kinds  of  Electric  work  and 
machinery,  small  Dynamos,  Axial  Engines  and 
Electric  Motors  in  all  forms,  as  well  as  wiring 
in  large  operations.  This  Company  enjoy  a  na¬ 
tional  reputation  for  the  perfection  and  finish  of 
its  wo  k  and  the  new  structure  has  been  fit¬ 
ted  in  a  great  measure  with  new  appliances  for 
the  construction  of  scientific  dynamos,  motive 
power  and  the  general  and  varied  wants  of  the 
trade. 


Removal  of  the  Warren-Ehret  Company  to 
432  Market  Street. 

Keep  your  eye  on  the  conscientious  worker, 
merchant  or  manufacturing  concern,  for  no  mat¬ 
ter  how  small  the  beginning,  the  time  soon 
comes  when  a  full  recognition  of  trust-worthi¬ 
ness  for  work  and  wares  necessitates  greater  fa- 
■  cilities  to  meet  business  .requirements.  The 
days  when  any  man  could  succeed,  and  inferior 
work  and  material  were  acceptable,  have  been 
superseded  by  a  demand  for  the  best  efforts  of 
conscientious  workmen,  whose  products  must 
stand  the  test  of  time  and  wear.  Business  popu¬ 
larity  is  of  slow  growth.  The  full  quantum  of 
patronage  has  not  only  rewarded  the  Warren- 
Ehret  Company’s  efforts,  but  it  has  been  com¬ 
pelled  to  seek  more  extended  facilities  for  every 
department  of  its  growing  business.  The  fact 
is,  the  almost  indestructible  character  of  the 
Warren  Ehret,  Slag-stone  composition  roofing, 
has  gained  for  it,  such  a  decided  preference 
among  the  owners  and  builders  of  Mills,  Fac¬ 
tories,  Foundries,  Chemical  works,  etc.,  that 
the  orders  thus  far  for  1890,  are  largely  in  ex¬ 
cess  of  any  preceeding  year.  The  Company  is 
also  commended  for  the  high  character  of  its 
patent  Slag-stone  Pavement,  and  this  feature  of 
its  business  now  necessitates  a  special  depart¬ 
ment  and  special  supervision. 


The  store  and  building,  432  Market  street  has 
been  leased  for  a  term  of  years  and  the  old  quar¬ 
ters  of  the  Company  will  be  vacated  on  or  about 
the  20th  instant.

SEAG=STONE 

PAVEMENT. 

for  Side-walks  and  Floors  is  conceded  to  be  the  best  pro¬ 
duction  of  the  present  century. 

Slag-Stone  when  properly  combined  with  the  best 
grades  of  Portland  Cement  produces  an  artificial  Stone 
superior  in  appearance,  toughness,  tensile  and  crushing 
strength  to  any  combination  known  to  modern  science. 
Its  durability  is  greater  than  the  best  Flag  Stone  and 
for  that  reason  it  is  cheaper  than  brick. 

Being  a  non-absorbent  it  is  superior  for  Canneries, 
Slaughter  Houses,  Damp  Cellars,  Boiler  Houses,  Dye 
Houses  Etc. 

Eor  the  Cellars  of  Residences  it  expresses  the 
highest  standard  of  perfect  Sanitation  as  it  prevtnts  the 
escape  of  noxious  gases  from  the  underl)  ing  soil,  and 
will  not  absorb  impurities.  It  prevents  dampness,  is 
easily  cleaned  and  renders  the  whole  house  more  com¬ 
fortable  and  healthful.

Testimony  such  as  the  following  is  valuable, 
for  many  reasons.  Buyers  desire  to  avoid  ex¬ 
periments,  as  far  as  possible.  Mr.  H.  C.  Miner, 
the  theatrical  manager,  writes  to  Mr.  I.  P. 
Frink,  manufacturer  of  reflectors,  as  follows  : 
Mr.  I.  P.  Frink, 

551  Pearl  street, 

New  York  City. 

Dear  Sir : — I  could  give  you  no  more  satis¬ 
factory  evidence  that  the  massive  reflecting 
chandelier,  with  its  150  gas  burners,  lighted 
by  electricity,  and  126  incandescent  electric 
lamps  you  put  in  my  Newark  theatre  two 
years  ago,  has  given  entire  satisfaction,  than 
by  ordering  another  exactly  like  it  for  the 
Fifth  Avenue  theatre,  New  York  City.  I  ex¬ 
pect  to  make  this  one  of  the  handsomest  thea¬ 
tres  in  the  city',  and  as  I  considered  your  fix¬ 
ture  one  of  the  chief  attractions  in  my  New¬ 
ark  theatre,  I  desire  it  also  to  be  the  same  in 
this.  Yours  is  the  only  proper  method  of 
lighting  a  theatre,  and  sooner  or  later  will  be 
adopted  by  all  You  may  take  your  time  in 
making  it,  as  I  do  not  take  possession  of  the 
theatre  until  May  1st,  1S90. 

Respectfully  Yours, 

H.  C.  MINER. 


Probably  the  most  completely  fire-proof  build¬ 
ings  in  New  York  are  the  new  stations  of  the 
Edison  Electric  Light  Company.  There  is  ab¬ 
solutely  nothing  in  them  that  could  make  a 
blaze  bigger  than  could  be  extinguished  by  a 
bucket  of  water.  One  of  them  cost  $  140,000, 
and  the  total  cost  of  the  carpenter  work  upon 
it,  which  included  all  the  doors  and  windows, 
glazing  and  work  of  that  sort,  was  only  $4,000. 


A  new  material  for  relief  ceilings  has  made  its 
appearance, and  is  composed  of  either  sheet  iron 
or  steel,  corrugated  or  pressed  in  ornamental 
forms  and  then  put  up  in  panels,  after  which  it 
is  painted  and  decorated,  and  it  is  difficult  to 
distinguish  it  from  plaster  relief.  The  uses  of 
these  ceilings  have  been  confined  to  stores, 
however.  We  have  also  seen  these  ceilings  put 
up  already  decorated  in  a  burnt  and  glazed  im¬ 
itation  of  lacquered  metal,  but  a  very  cheap  and 
tinsel  effect  is  the  result. — House  Painting  and

PHILADELPHIA,  WED’Y.  MARCH  19,  1890. 


For  the  convenience  of  members  of  the 
Master  Builders’  Exchange,  we  have  secured 
Box  No.  199  at  that  place,  where  any  communi¬ 
cations  for  publication  may  be  left. 


York,  Pa.,  will  probably  have  a  paid  fire  de¬ 
partment,  the  question  is  under  consideration 
by  City  Councils. 


Boston  Mass  ,  has  a  Fireman’s  training  school. 
The  Fire  Commissioners  will  shortly  give  an 
exhibition  of  the  proficiency  of  recent  gradu¬ 
ates  in  fireman’s  work,  including  the  use  of  life 
saving  apparatus. 


Steam  heating  in  Reading,  Pa.,  in  most 
cases,  means  pipe  connection,  with  the  steam 
pipes  under  the  streets,  the  steam  being  fur¬ 
nished  by  a  company  from  a  central  plant. 


The  new  town  of  Charleroi,  located  on  the 
Monongahela  river,  at  McKean’s  Station.  Pa., 
is  booming.  The  sales  of  building  lots  on  the 
first  day,  netted  $  155,000  for  360  lots.  Mr.  J. 
Alexander,  who  started  the  town  of  Jeannette, 
is  also  manager  of  Charleroi. 


Mr.  Edward  Atkinson,  President  of  the 
Boston  Manufacturers’  Mutual  Fire  Insurance 
Company,  has  in  his  possession  a  piece  of  a 
door  sill  of  a  hotel  that  was  set  on  fire  by  a 
steam  pipe  from  a  boiler  worked  under  twelve 
pounds  pressure.  The  evidence  of  the  danger 
of  steam  and  hot  air  pipes,  when  too  close  to 
wood  work,  is  accumulating,  notwithstanding 
the  pooh  poohing  of  theorists  and  experts  to 
the  contrary. 


IT  is  interesting  to  read  in  the  outside  papers 
about  the  great  things  that  are  to  be  done  in 
Philadelphia  toward  the  improvement  of  our 


The  $300, 000  stipulated  for  the  completion  of 
Walnut  street  bridge,  could  be  much  better  em- 
loyed  in  sewer  building,  gas  pipes  and  pave, 
tneuts,  for  while  there  is  no  great  hurry  for  the 
bridge,  there  is  the  most  urgent  demand  for 
every  dollar  that  can  be  spared  in  the  prepara¬ 
tion  of  newly  paved  streets,  for  building  im¬ 
provements  which  greatly  add  to  the  city’s  rev 
enue.  The  allcttments  should  be  revised  and  a 
committee  from  the  Operaiive  Builders’  associa¬ 
tion,  might— and  we  say  it  wuii  s.ine  misgiv¬ 
ings — influence  a  more  advantageous  expendi¬ 
ture  of  the  money  in  a  direction  that  would 
facilitate  their  building  operations.  The  com¬ 
mittee  might  get  fired  out,  as  other  builders’ 
have  been,  but  that  would’nt  hurt  them  in  the 
least. 


What  have  tbe  eighteen  members  of  City 
Councils  done  to  merit  such  distinguished  con¬ 
sideration  from  the  Pennsylvania  Railroad 
Company,  as  the  placing  of  the  magnificent 
hotel  car,  St.  Nicholas,  at  their  disposal  while  on 
a  Southern  trip  ?  Surely  such  a  forcible  expres¬ 
sion  of  kindly  feeling  on  the  part  of  railroad 
officials  toward  plain,  every-day  members  of  City 
Councils,  who  recognize  and  oppose  the  baneful 
influence  of  sordid  railroad  companies,  is  some¬ 
thing  unusual,  and  slightly  mysterious,  to  say 
the  least. 

Official  courtesy  is  a  very  proper  thing,  pro¬ 
vided  it  does  not  open  the  way  for  official  reci¬ 
procity  in  the  near  future,  to  the  detriment  of 
the  dear  people,  but  as  kissing  goes  by  favor, 
and  the  Pennsylvania  Railroad  Company  never 
kisses  those  it  cannot  use,  it  is  dead  certain  that 
its  latest  eloquent  expression  of  unselfish  gene¬ 
rosity  is  not  without  a  purpose.  Next ! 


Another  Business  Change. 

The  Mankey  Decorative  Company,  of  Wil¬ 
liamsport,  Pa.,  has  disposed  of  its  Philadelphia 
retail  department  to  Matthew  Hall,  the  artistic 
wood  m  intel  manufacturer,  1927  and  1929  Mar¬ 
ket  stret  ts,  Mr.  Hall  having  taken  the  exclusive 
agency  for  the  Mankey  mantels,  wood  work 
and  mouldings,  and  havitig  purchased  the  stock, 
lease,  etc,  of  the  company’s  store,  1931  Market

ROOFING. 

We  are  now  ready  to  supply  the  product  of 
entirely  new  machinery  and  processes  just  com¬ 
pleted  by  which  we  not  only  have  greatly  improved 
the  strength  and  durability  of  our  well-known 
ASBESTOS  ROOFING,  but  have  also  secured  a 
degree  of  uniformity  never  before  attained  in  any 
similar  fabric.  We  offer  this  as  the  perfected 
form  of  the  portable  Roofing  which  we  have  manu¬ 
factured  with  continued  improvements  during  the 
past  thirty  years,  and  as  the  most  desirable  Roofing 
lor  general  purposes. 

Tne  important  features  of  our  recent  improve¬ 
ments,  for  which  patents  have  been  allowed  in  this 
country  and  in  Europe,  are  described  in  our  new  cir¬ 
cular,  which,  with  samples,  will  be  sent  free  by  mail. 

Our  Asbestos  Roofing  is  now  in  use  upon  Factor¬ 
ies,  Foundries,  Cotton  Gins,  Railroad  Bridges,  Cars, 
Steamboats,  etc.,  in  all  parts  of  the  world. 

It  is  supplied  ready  for  use,  in  rolls  of  200  square 
feet,  and  weighs  with  Asbestos  Roof  Coating,  ready 
for  shipment,  about  85  pounds  to  100  square  feet. 

It  is  adapted  for  steep  or  flat  roofs  in  all  climates, 
and  can  be  readily  applied  by  unskilled  workmen.

EHRET’S 

Slag -Stone  Composition 

BOOFIMOi 

has  stood  the  severest  tests  and  in  no  case  has  it 
ever  failed. 

It  is  Fire  Proof,  as  well  as  Damp  and  Moisture 
proof.  It  never  expands  or  contracts  ;  it  is  not  af¬ 
fected  by  Steam,  Acids,  Gasses,  Vapors  or  other 
injurious  influences,  that  would  render  a  metal  roof 
perfectly  useless  in  a  lew  weeks.  It  is  air-tight  and 
is  not  affected  by  atmospheric  influences  of  any 
kind  ;  it  is  durable  and  reliable  in  winter  and  sum¬ 
mer,  and  positively  requires  no  care  or  attention 
whatever.  It  will  out-last  the  BUILDING  and  for 
Factories,  Chemical  Works,  Boiler  and  Engine- 
houses,  Depots,  Factories,  Mills  and  Warehouses, 
it  is  without  an  equal.  It  costs  less  than  tin  or 
slate,  requires  no  painting,  can  be  walked  on  with¬ 
out  injury  and  must  not  be  considered  in  the  same 
light  and  prejudice  usually  bestowed  upon  what  are 
known  as  Tar  Roofs. 

BEWARE  OF  IMITATIONS,  for  the  durability  of 
our  Roofing  is  not  only  owing  to  our  great  care  in 
laying  on  a  roof  ;  but  also  in  the  scientific  prepara¬ 
tion  of  the  Material  we  use.  Circulars  and  testimo¬ 
nials  sent  upon  application.

Minerva  Parker. 

(ARCHITECT.) 

It  has  always  been  a  matter  of  surprise  to 
those  having  made  the  matter  a  subject  of  study 
that  so  few  of  the  great  army  of  self  supporting 
women  have  entered  the  field  of  architecture, 
which,  of  all  the  professions  now  open  to  wo¬ 
men,  would  seem  to  be  the  one  best  calculated  as  a 
medium  for  the  expression  of  her  creative  genius 
and  her  love  of  what  is  beautiful  and  symmetri¬ 
cal.  In  Philadelphia,  whiie  most  of  the  trades 
and  professions  are  ably  represented  by  a  num¬ 
ber  of  bright  and  intelligent  women,  that  of  ar¬ 
chitecture  has  but  one  follower,  found  in  the 
person  of  Minerva  Parker,  with  an  office  at  No. 
14  South  Broad  street,  this  city. 

Miss  Parker  conies  of  sturdy  New  England 
stock,  her  ancestors  having  settled  in  Boston, 
Salem  and  Plymouth,  Massachusetts  and,  in 
common  with  most  of  the  settlers  in  that  re¬ 
gion,  espoused  warmly  the  cause  of  their 
adopted  country,  and  became  actively  identi¬ 
fied  with  the  various  movements  of  the  Revo¬ 
lutionary  War.  Her  grandfather,  Seth  A. 
Doane,  was  a  well-known  ship  designer  and 
architect,  who  left  New  England  about  1834- 
35,  at  the  time  when  the  wave  of  population 
began  to  move  toward  the  then  far  West.  He 
finally  purchased  a  large  tract  of  land  on  the 
shore  of  Lake  Michigan,  where  the  city  of 
Chicago  now  stands.  Her  mother  was  one  of 
the  first  children  born  in  that  thriving  city, 
and  from  her  youth  up,  was  accustomed  to  be¬ 
ing  associated  with  her  father,  not  only  in 
study,  but  in  practical  work,  becoming  in  this 
way  famdiar  with  the  plane  and  the  saw  as 
well  as  with  the  compass  and  T  square.  Her 
father,  a  lawyer  by  profession,  raised  a  regi¬ 
ment  of  soldiers  during  the  late  Rebellion  and 
fell  fighting  in  defense  of  his  country  on  the 
field  of  battle.  With  such  antecedents  as 
these — pioneers  in  the  history  of  this  new 
country,  and  springing  from  old  Scotch  and 
English  stock  in  the  old  country — it  is  not  sur¬ 
prising  to  find  Miss  Parker  possessing  the  cour¬ 
age  of  her  convictions  and  enthusiastic  in  fol¬ 
lowing  the  natural  bent  of  her  mind  for  archi¬ 
tecture,  undoubtedly  inherited  from  her  ances¬ 
tors.  Like  all  innovators,  Miss  Parker  has  had 
many  obstacles  to  overcome  before  reaching 
her  present  position,  chief  among  them  being 
the  difficulty  to  obtain,  in  this  country,  the 
thorough  technical  and  architectural  training 
necessary  to  fit  her  for  the  successful  prosecution 
of  her  chosen  work.  This,  it  must  be  under¬ 
stood,  does  not  apply  to  women  only,  but  men 
experience  the  same  difficulty.  Miss  Parker 
believes  thoroughly  in  any  movement  calcula¬ 
ted  to  elevate  the  standard  of  architectural  work, 
and  is  in  favor  of  licensing  architects,  expressing 
herself  as  perfectly  willing  to  embrace  an  op¬ 
portunity  to  pass  a  prescribed  examination  for 
such  a  purpose;  and,  “should  I  fail,”  using  her 
own  language,  “I  would  then  know  where  to 
strengthen  my  armor,’’  plucking,  as  it  were,  the 
flower  safety  from  the  nettle  danger,  and  making 


failure  the  ladder  by  which  to  reach  success. 

Strange  to  say,  the  fact  of  being  a  woman 
has  never,  at  any  time,  been  a  serious  draw¬ 
back,  nor  in  any  way  handicapped  her  while 
pursuing  her  line  of  work.  On  the  contrary, 
words  of  encouragement  and  good  fellowship 
have  at  all  times  been  freely  extended,  both  by 
the  public  in  general  and  her  fellow’-arcliitects. 
Such  facts  as  these,  more  than  any  thing  else, 
afford  convincing  proof  that  a  position  is  wait¬ 
ing  for  every  woman  just  as  soon  as  she  makes 
herself  capable  of  filling  it.  As  to  builders,  me¬ 
chanics,  and  all  with  whom  she  has  come  in  con¬ 
tact,  the  only  advantage  any  of  them  has  taken  in 
dealing  with  a  woman  has  been  added  care  on 
their  part  in  executing  the  work  called  for  by  her 
plans  and  specifications.  It  was  neither  Miss 


Parker’s  wish  nor  intention  to  assume  the  title 
of  architect  for  some  time  to  come,  but  a  rapidly 
increasing  number  of  clients  made  it  a  neces¬ 
sity.  Thus  far  her  work  has  been  almost  wholly 
confined  to  domestic  architecture,  which,  for 
the  present,  it  is  her  inlention  to  make  a  spe¬ 
cialty  ;  and  when  one  stops  to  consider  this  par¬ 
ticular  field  of  work,  its  immense  resources,  its 
magnificent  possibilities,  its  peculiar  adapta¬ 
bility  to  woman,  the  wonder  grows  that  it  had 
not  been  entered  long  before  Miss  Parker  de¬ 
termined  to  turn  her  attention  to  designing 
beautiful  and  artistic  homes.  Miss  Parker  be¬ 
lieves  architecture  is  largely  the  express:on  of 
popular  taste,  and  that  the  responsibility,  in  a 
great  measure,  rests  with  the  architect  to  refine 
it,  and  to  eliminate  from  it,  as  far  as  possible, 
all  those  fantastic  and  peculiar  examples  which 


possess  no  intrinsic  merit,  and  which  only  wait 
the  verdict  of  time  to  condemn  them  in  the 
eyes  of  all  true  lovers  of  pure  and  simple  archi¬ 
tecture.  It  was  Miss  Parker’s  pleasure  to  visit 
Chicago  at  the  time  of  the  opening  of  the  Audi¬ 
torium,  and  she  speaks  enthusiastically  of  the 
many  fine  examples  of  architecture  to  be  seen 
in  the  West.  Among  the  plans  recently  fur¬ 
nished  by  Miss  Parker  are  the  following  :  A 
large  frame  dwelling,  for  Max.  Suppee,  erected 
at  Johnstown,  Pa.;  a  three-story  stone  resi¬ 
dence  for  Lewis  T.  Brooke,  of  Philadelphia, 
erected  at  Radnor,  Pa.,  containing,  among  other 
features,  a  large  reception  hall,  with  oak  rafters 
and  panelled  with  the  same  wood,  a  stone  fire¬ 
place  of  unique  designs  adds  beauty  to  this  hall, 
from  which  open  an  office,  parlor,  dining-room 
and  library  Miss  Parker  has,  also,  in  her 
office  the  plans  for  a  large  stone  and  frame 
dwelling,  to  be  erected  at  Elm  Station  by 
George  Christy.  These  plans  call  for  an  inter¬ 
ior  finish  of  cherry  and  quartered  oak,  with 
considerable  tile  work,  and  a  number  of  hand¬ 
some  stained  glass  window’s.  Mr.  Davis,  Mr. 
Bulow  and  Mr.  H.  Mullwood  Justice,  have 
each  erected  residences  at  Elm  Station  from 
plans  furnished  by  Miss  Parker,  and  also  John 
M.  Kennedy.  Another  example  of  her  work 
may  be  found  in  the  stone  dwelling  and  stable 
erected  at  Overbrook,  Pa.,  for  A  J  Patterson. 
This  is  also  finished  handsomely  in  hard¬ 
woods,  and  contains  a  number  of  stained  glass 
windows  disposed  to  the  best  advantage  for 
light  and  ornament ;  also,  a  stone  store  and 
dwelling,  erected  at  l.ansdowne,  Pa.,  for  Mrs. 
E.  C.  Hartel,  and  a  frame  dwelling  for  J. 
Frank  Beale,  at  Berwyn,  Pa.  Among  later 
plans,  which  have  just  been  finished,  is  one  for 
Miss  L.  E  Gallagher,  of  Philadelphia,  to  be 
erected  at  Moore’s  station,  Pa  These  which 
have  been  mentioned  are,  of  course,  only  a  few 
of  the  many  excellent  plans  that  have  been 
furnished  to  customers,  by  Miss  Parker,  for 
suburban  homes,  but  a  sufficient  number  has 
been  enumerated  to  convince  the  most  skepti¬ 
cal  that  she  has  selected  a  field  big  with  prom¬ 
ise,  and  the  indications  are  that  she  will  use 
the  opportunities  thus  afforded  her  with  honor 
to  herself  and  the  profession  she  so  ably  rep¬ 
resents.

quiet,  asphalt  pavement.  There  is  one  class  of 
sufferers,  however,  from  whom  nothing  has  yet 
been  heard.  The  patrons  of  the  different 
places  of  amusement,  who  pay  good  money  for 
an  evening’s  entertainment,  only  to  have  it 
spoiled  by  the  deafening  noise  outside. 


There  is  not  the  least  doubt,  if  the  proper 
consideration  is  given  by  the  city  authorities  to 
the  wants  of  builders  in  the  matter  of  sewers, 
gas,  water  pipes  and  paving,  that  more  houses 
will  be  erected  this  year  than  last.  As  a  busi¬ 
ness  investment,  there  is  certainly  no  way  that 
the  city  could  use  the  largest  part  of  the  propose  1 
three  per  cent.loan  than  in  the  preparation  of  new 
streets  for  building  purposes.  Buildersare  willing 
to  assume  the  average  busiuessrisk,  but  as  a  rule 
they  are  not  willing  to  invest  large  sums  in  the 
erection  of  new  buildings  on  streets  that  arenot 
likely  to  receive  the  attention  of  our  city  au¬ 
thorities,  for  years,  perhaps,  after  the  completion 
of  the  buildings.  In  fact,  there  is  little  or  no 
sale  for  buildings,  until  the  street  work  has  been 
completed,  and  we  know  of  several  instances 
last  year,  where  purchasers  stood  ready  to  buy 
houses  for  investment,  hut  the  sale  could  not  be 
consummated,  because  the  street  work  had  not 
been  completed,  and  was  uot  likely  to  be  for 
some  time  to  come.  If  the  loan  is  consum¬ 
mated,  there  will  be  no  excuse  if  a  sufficient  sum 
is  not  allotted  for  the  purpose  above  designated, 


and  there  is  positively  no  way  that  the  money 
could  be  so  profitably  used,  for  in  a  few  years  it 
would  be  returned,  dollar  for  dollar,  in  the  way 
of  tax  revenue  from  fifteen  to  twenty  millions, 
that  will  surely  be  invested  this  year  on  the  new 
streets  that  require  sewers,  etc.,  and  which 
should  have  them,  no  matter  what  other  city 
work  is  neglected.  An  opportunity  to  add 
greatly  to  the  yearly  revenue  of  the  city  may 
not  occur  for  a  decade  or  two  after  the  present 
era  of  house  building  and  house  buying  has 
passed  away,  consequently  it  would  be  only  good 
business  judgment  to  make  the  most  of  the  op¬ 
portunity  to  increase  the  city’s  annual  revenue, 
and  at  the  same  time  encourage  the  efforts  and 
enterprise  of  our  builders,  who  are  really  the 
most  important  factors  in  the  city’s  growth  and 
development,  after  all.  The  organization  known 
as  Operative  Builders,  should  demand  for  them¬ 
selves  and  others,  a  proper  recognition  of  this 
question.  In  fact,  they  should  urge  it  with  an 
emphasis  that  can  have  no  other  meaning  than 
a  determination  to  fasten  the  responsibility  for 
any  neglect  to  push  forward  this  kind  of  city 
work  to  the  utmost.

SEAG-STONE 

PAVEMENT. 

for  Side-walks  and  Floors  is  conceded  to  be  the  best  pro¬ 
duction  of  the  present  century. 

Slag-Stone  when  properly  combined  with  the  best 
grades  of  Portland  Cement  produces  an  artificial  Stone 
superior  in  appearance,  toughness,  tensile  and  crushing 
strength  to  any  combination  known  to  modern  science. 
Its  durability  is  greater  than  the  best  Flag-Stone  and 
for  that  reason  it  is  cheaper  than  brick. 

Being  a  non-absorbent  it  is  superior  for  Canneries, 
Slaughter  Houses,  Damp  Cellars,  Boiler  Houses,  Dye 
Houses  Etc. 

For  the  Cellars  of  Residences  it  expresses  the 
highest  standard  of  perftct  Sanitation  as  it  prevents  the 
escape  of  noxious  gases  from  the  underlying  soil,  and 
will  not  absorb  impurities.  It  prevents  dampness,  is 
easily  cleaned  and  renders  the  whole  house  more  com¬ 
fortable  and  healthful.

PHILADELPHIA,  WED’Y.  APRIL  2,  1890. 


For  the  convenience  of  members  of  the 
Master  Builders’  Exchange,  we  have  secured 
Box  No.  199  at  that  place,  where  any  communi¬ 
cations  for  publication  may  be  left. 


Building  extension,  #175,000  also  the  Bullitt 
Building  at  $65,000,  two  large  market  houses  at 
#300,000  and  $60,000,  besides  a  number  of  church¬ 
es,  school  houses,  chapels,  etc., all  of  which  are  of 
considerable  value.  When  these  things  are 
taken  into  consideration  it  is  evident  that  thus 
far  building  operations  for  the  year  have  been 
satisfactory,  and  if  the  needed  street  improve¬ 
ments  are  made,  the  season  of  1890,  will  exceed 
any  of  its  predecessors. 


A  comparison  of  the  building  operations  of 
March  1890,  with  those  of  the  corresponding 
period  of  last  year,  shows  a  considerable  falling 
off  for  the  present  season.  The  reason  is  doubt¬ 
less  to  be  found  in  the  unfavorable  weather, 
which  has  put  an  estoppel  on  many  projected 
operations  and  delayed  them  until  later  in  the 
spring  The  decrease  is  almost  wholly  con¬ 
fined  to  two  story  houses.  Our  report  for 
March  1889,  showed  that  building  permits  were 
issued  for  the  erection  of  1401  two-story  and 
481  three-story  dwellings,  against  835  two-story 
and  338  three-story  dwellings  for  the  same  period 
of  1890.  Building  for  manufacturing  purposes, 
including  foundries  factories, dye  and  dry  houses, 
engine  and  boiler  houses,  etc.,  shows  a  decided 
increase  for  the  present  year.  In  comparing 
the  first  tnree  months  of  1889  with  1890,  it  is 
found  that  the  number  of  operations  for  the  first 
two  months  of  this  year  is  more  than  last  year, 
owing  probable  to  favorable  weather.  During 
January,  February  and  March  of  1889  the  total 
number  of  operations  was  2886,  against  2728  for 
1890,  making  a  difference  of  only  158  operations. 
The  monetary  value  however,  of  the  present 
season  exceeds  that  of  last,  as  there  is  a  noti- 
cable  increase  in  the  number  oflarge  buildings. 
With  the  exception  of  an  infirmary  annex  no 
buildings  of  note  were  begun  early  in  the  season 
of  1889,  in  fact  they  were  couspicious  by  their 
absence,  during  the  year,  but  thus  far  this  year, 
we  have  the  Warden  apartment  house,  valued  at 
$500,000,  two  hospitals,  at  $175,000  and  #50,000, 
respectively,  the  Bingham  House  extension  at 
$125,000,  the  Times  Annex,  at  $175,000,  a 
large  storage  warehouse,  $220,000,  the  Brown 


An  Attractive  Exhibit  of  Ecclesiastical 
Work. 

Perhaps  the  most  attractive  Easter  offering 
ever  seen  in  this  city  is  the  exhibition  of  an 
elegant  altar,  with  its  suburb  mountings  sur¬ 
rounded  by  a  mass  of  ecclesiastical  goods  such 
as  altar  candle  sticks  and  candles,  altar  crosses, 
crucifixes,  sanctuary  lamps,  paschals,  and  other 
auxiliaries  for  public  and  private  worship ; 
which  can  be  seen  in  the  window  of  the  Thackara 
Manufacturing  Company,  1524  and  1526  Chest¬ 
nut  street.  This  magnificiaut  display  is  par¬ 
ticularly  attractive  during  the  evening  as  under 
a  strong  light  its  manifold  beauties,  become 
more  striking. 

We  mention  this  display  as  an  evidence  of 
what  can  be  done  in  this  line  in  Philadel¬ 
phia  and  by  Philadelphia  mechanics  and  de¬ 
signers. 


The  following  appeared  as  an  item  of  news 
in  the  Evening  Bulleten,  of  this  city  on  March 
25th,  as  a  testimonial  of  merit,  it  is  certainly 
strong  and  pointed  enough  to  please  even  Messrs, 
Roberts  Taylor  &  Co.  the  proprietors. 

Save  a  New  Roof. 

How  THE  PRESENT  Top  COVERING  OF  THE 
United  States  Mint  was  made  durable. 

“The  statement  that  we  scraped  $1,450  in 
gold  off  the  roof  is  incorrect.”  said  Col. 
Ege,  Custodian  of  the  United  States  Mint,  in 
speaking  to  a  reporter  of  the  Evening  Bulletin 
to-day  of  the  painting  of  the  roof  of  the  Mint, 
just  finished  under  his  direction. 

The  scrapings  have  not  yet  been  assayed,  ad¬ 
ded  the  Colonel,  but  we  expect  they  will  run 
between  #200  and  $300.  That  is,  of  course, 
more  than  the  cost  of  the  paint,  which  was 
$159,  but  hardly  as  much  of  a  profit  as  stated. 

The  statement  probably  originated  in  the  fact 
that  by  this  painting  we  save  the  expense  of  a 
new  iron  roof,  which,  it  was  estimated,  would 
cost  1,500.  By  the  painting  we  made  the  old 
roof  durable,  so  that  it  will  last  for  a  number  of 
years  yet.  Probably  until  we  can  get  into  a  new 
building. 

The  roof  was  considerably  worn  ? 

It  was  ;  there  were  a  great  number  of  small 
holes  in  it,  burned  by  acid  and  rust.  These 
were  all  filled  up  with  the  paint,  which  is  fire¬ 
proof  and  waterproof. 

What  kind  of  paint  is  it  ? 

The  water  and  fireproof  roofing  paint  made 
under  the  Wm  Roberts,  Sr.  ’s.  patent  by  Roberts, 
Taylor  &  Co.,  of  North  Sixth  street. 


Is  it  a  good  paint  ? 

Undoubtedly  it  is,  and  exceedingly  adapted 
for  the  purpose.  I  gave  them  a  certificate  to 
that  effect.  I  have  seen  samples  of  it  that  have 
been  in  use  and  exposed  to  the  weather  for  eleven 
years,  and  it  appears  to  be  just  as  good  now  as 
ever.  It  is  no  doubt  fire-proof,  as  I  have  seen  it 
exposed  to  tests,  and,  being  Waterproof  as  well, 
it  is  just  the  thing  for  onr  roof. 

Mr.  Ege  was  hopeful  of  a  new  mint  building, 
but  was  confident  that  the  roof  as  now  painted 
with  the  Roberts  paint  would  last  until  that 
time.”

similar  fabric.  We  offer  this  as  the  perfected

ments,  for  which  patents  have  been  allowed  in  this

has  stood  the  severest  tests  and  in  no  case  has  it 
ever  failed. 

It  is  Fire  Proof,  as  well  as  Damp  and  Moisture 
proof.  It  never  expands  or  contracts  ;  it  is  not  af¬ 
fected  by  Steam,  Acids,  Gasses,  Vapors  or  other 
injurious  influences,  that  would  render  a  metal  roof 
perfectly  useless  in  a  lew  weeks.  It  is  air-tight  and 
is  not  affected  by  atmospheric  influences  of  any 
kind  ;  it  is  durable  and  reliable  in  winter  and  sum¬ 
mer,  and  positively  requires  no  care  or  attention 
whatever.  It  will  out-last  the  BUILDING  and  for 
Factories,  Chemical  Works,  Boiler  and  Engine- 
houses,  Depots,  Factories,  Mills  and  Warehouses, 
it  is  without  an  equal.  It  costs  less  than  tin  or 
slate,  requires  no  painting,  can  be  walked  on  with¬ 
out  injury  and  must  not  be  considered  in  the  same 
light  and  prejudice  usually  bestowed  upon  what  are

TO  THE 

MAN  or  WOMAN, 

of  Sedentary  Habits. 

Bicycle  Riding  posesses  more  health 
giving  influences  than  all  the  Tonics  known  to 
the  realm  of  science. 

A  ten  mile  spin  with  all  of  one’s  senses 
keenly  alive  to  the  enchantment  of  the  sport, 
through  country  scenes,  pleasant,  picturesque 
and  beautiful,  with  lungs  inflated  with  pure  air, 
the  muscles  in  full  play  and  ready  for  a  brush, 
the  blood  tingling  with  renewed  vigor,  the  mind 
free  from  business  cares  the  whole  being  exal¬ 
ted  and  then  an  appetite  a  wolf  might  envy. 

Is  it  a  wonder  that  Cycle  Riding  has  its  vo¬ 
taries  by  the  thousands  ? 

The  Hart  Cycle  Company,  can  fit  you  out 
from  its  1890  patterns  now  in  stock,  the  Colum¬ 
bia’s  at  the  head,  and  it  will  prove  the  best  in¬ 
vestment  you  ever  made.

SEAG-STONE 

PAVEMENT. 

for  Side-walks  and  Floors  is  conceded  to  be  the  best  pro¬ 
duction  of  the  present  century. 

Slag-Stone  when  properly  combined  with  the  best 
grades  of  Portland  Cement  produces  an  artificial  Stone 
superior  in  appearance,  toughness,  tensile  and  crushing 
strength  to  any  combination  known  to  modern  science. 
Its  durability  is  greater  than  the  best  Flag-Stone  and 
for  that  reason  it  is  cheaper  than  brick. 

Being  a  non-absorbent  it  is  superior  for  Canneries, 
Slaughter  Houses,  Damp  Cellars,  Boiler  Houses,  Dye 
Houses  Etc. 

For  the  Cellars  of  Residences  it  expresses  the 
highest  standard  of  perfect  Sanitation  as  it  prevents  the 
escape  of  noxious  gases  from  the  underlying  soil,  and 
will  not  absorb  impurities.  It  prevents  dampness,  is 
easily  cleaned  and  renders  the  whole  house  more  com¬ 
fortable  and  healthful.

and  Juniata  Park,  near  Rowlandville,  and  Bar- 
tram  Park,  below  Gray’s  Ferry,  and  from  pre¬

Bicycle  Riding  posesses  more  health 
giving  influences  than  all  the  Tonics  known  to 
the  realm  of  science. 

A  ten  mile  spin  with  all  of  one’s  senses 
keenly  alive  to  the  enchantment  of  the  sport, 
through  country  scenes,  pleasant,  picturesque 
and  beautiful,  with  lungs  inflated  with  pure  air, 
the  muscles  in  full  play  and  ready  for  a  brush, 
the  blood  tingling  with  renewed  vigor,  the  mind 
free  from  business  cares  the  whole  being  exal¬ 
ted  and  then  an  appetite  a  wolf  might  envy. 

Is  it  a  wonder  that  Cycle  Riding  has  itsvo-

For  the  convenience  of  members  of  the 
Master  Builders’  Exchange,  we  have  secured 
Box  No.  199  a.  that  place,  where  any  communi¬ 
cations  for  publication  may  be  left.

Just  as  we  were  almost  convinced  that,  our 
well  cherished  ideas  about  tariff  reform  were 
altogether  wrong,  and  that  tariff  reform  was  a 
delusion  and  a  snare,  and  that  after  all  a  high 
tax,  on  raw  material  is  a  double  barrelled  bles  - 
iug  in  disguise,  along  comes  one,  Edward  H. 
Fitler  the  honored  Mayor  of  a  great  city,  whose 
name  was  presented  before  the  Chicago  Re¬ 
publican  Convention  for  President  of  the  United 
States  on  a  high  tariff  platform,  an  officer  or 
the  Union  League,  an  extensive  manufacturef 
of  rope  and  a  heretofore  red  hot  advocate  of 
the  highest  possible  tariff  in  order  that  Ameri 
can  Industries  should  be  properly  protected, 
who  deliberately  calls  a  free  trade  meeting  in 
his  own  business  office  in  this  city,  March  22d, 
ult.,  at  which  a  committee  is  appointed  to  visit 
Washington,  and  try  hard  to  do  the  very  thing 
that  Mr.  Cleveland  had  said  ought  to  be  done, 
.and  with  eloquence  mixed  with  facts,  threats 
aud  surmises, 

(Mr.  Eitler)  says  : — “This  tariff  question  is  a 
serious  oue,  for  the  twine  and  cordage  manu¬ 
facturers  of'  the  United  States  have  an  annual 
output  of  over  $ 50,000,000  worth  of  manufac¬ 
tured  goods.  If  tie  tariff  bill  in  its  present  shape 
becomes  a  law  the  industry  will  be  practically 
wiped  out  aud  15,000  paople  will  be  thrown  out 
of  employment  Our  house,  which  is  the  largest, 
will  not  suspend,  but  we  will  divide  up,  and 
sending  one-half  of  our  machinery  to  Mexico, 
will  transport  the  other  half  to  Canada  or  Eng¬ 
land.  In  this  way  we  will  be  able  to  compete 
with  other  manufacturers  who  empiov  cheap 
labor  and  have  cheap  raw  material.” 

Now  this  is  deucedly  demoralizing  to  the 
editors  of  newspapers  all  over  the  land.  It 


makes  out  that  the  high  tariff  editors  are  a  lot  of 
fools  and  liars,  while  the  heretofore,  reform¬ 
ers  like  ourselves,  who  have  got  as  far  as  the 
mourners  bench  and  who  since  Harrison’s  elec¬ 
tion  have  been  repenting  in  sack  cloth  and  ashes 
are  worse  off  than  ever,  what  a  cold  uncharitable 
world  this  is  after  all,  next  ? 

In  an  interview  with  Theophilus  P.  Chandler, 
Jr.,  Architect  of  the  Warden  apartment-house, 
now  being  built  at  nth  and  Pine  streets,  we 
were  informed  that  the  work  is  progressing  very 
satisfactorily  and  that  applications  are  on  fife 
for  almost  the  entire  capacity  of  the  great  struc¬ 
ture  ;  which  is  very  flattering  to  the  prospects 
of  Mr.  Warden,  the  proprietor  of  the  enterprise 
As  the  Warden,  is  a  pioneer  of  its  kind,  and 
already  an  assured  success,  others  will  likely 
follow  of  lesser  or  greater  magnitude.  In  struc¬ 
tures  of  this  kind,  Mr.  Chandler  seems  to  be  in 
his  element  and  a  lover  of  his  art  as  well. 


The  new  residence  of  Mr.  Wm.  Montgomery, 
now  in  course  of  construction  on  Seventh  street 
below  Norris  street,  this  city,  is  to  contain  three 
elegant  wood  mantels,  which  it  is  said,  will  at 
least  equal,  if  they  do  not  excel,  any  ever  seen 
in  this  city.  The  designs  and  detail  drawings, 
were  pre,  ared  by  Architect  Stuckert,  430  Wal¬ 
nut  street,  Mr.  Matthew  Hall,  1927  Market 
street,  having  taken  the  contract  to  make  them, 
Mr.  Hall  has  also  contracted  for  the  Wardrobes, 
China  closet  and  Book-cases  for  the  same  house, 
and  also  for  the  wood-work  and  tileing  for  a 
fine  vestibule,  for  the  new  residence  of  Owen 
McKenna,  on  Sixteenth  street  above  Dauphin. 


The  arrangement  of  the  electric  lights  that 
the  Executive  Committee  of  the  M-tropolitan 
Museum  of  Art,  New  York,  has  determined  to 
place  throughout  the  entire  building,  has  caused 
the  committee-men  a  great  deal  of  bother  aud 
worry. 

There  were  different  opinions  as  to  the  best 
an  angement  of  lights  for  the  galleries  of  paint¬ 
ings.  The  question  was  settled  by  having  the 
electricians  arrange  lights  according  to  differ 
ent  systems  in  different  rooms  for  inspection. 
At  the  meeting  of  the  full  committee,  I.  P  Frink’s 
method  of  reflectors  was  unanimously  adopted 
With  these  reflectors  the  paintings  will  be 
evenly  covered  with  a  light  without  glare,  and 
throwing  the  interiorof  the  room  intotheshade. 

Now,  that  this  is  settled  upon,  the  work  of 
lighting  every  gallery  in  the  Museum  is  being 
rapidly  pushed  by  Mr.  Frink,  and  very  soon 
the  IV!  useum  will  be  thrown  open  on  Tuesday 
and  Friday  nights.

'THU  GREAT  IMPROVEMENT  IN 

ROOFING. 

We  are  now  ready  to  supply  the  product  of 
entirely  new  machinery  and  processes  just  com¬ 
pleted  by  which  we  not  only  have  greatly  improved 
the  strength  and  durability  of  our  well-known 
ASBESTOS  ROOFING,  but  have  also  secured  a 
degree  of  uniformity  never  before  attained  in  any 
similar  fabric.  We  offer  this  as  the  perfected 
form  of  the  portable  Roofing  which  we  have  manu¬ 
factured  with  continued  improvements  during  the 
past  thirty  years,  and  as  the  most  desirable  Roofing 
for  general  purposes. 

Tne  important  features  of  our  recent  improve¬ 
ments,  for  which  patents  have  been  allowed  in  this 
country  and  in  Europe,  are  described  in  our  new  cir¬ 
cular,  which,  with  samples,  will  be  sent  free  by  mail. 

Our  Asbestos  Roofing  is  now  in  use  upon  Factor¬ 
ies,  Foundries,  Cotton  Gins,  Railroad  Bridges,  Cars, 
Steamboatst  etc.,  in  all  parts  of  the  world. 

It  is  supplied  ready  for  use,  in  rolls  of  200  square 
feet,  and  weighs  with  Asbestos  Roof  Coating,  ready 
for  shipment,  about  85  pounds  to  100  square  feet 
It  is  adapted  for  steep  or  flat  roofs  in  all  climates,

EOOFINQi 

has  stood  the  severest  tests  and  in  no  case  has  it 
ever  failed. 

It  is  Fire  Proof,  as  well  as  Damp  and  Moisture 
proof.  It  never  expands  or  contracts  ;  it  is  not  af¬ 
fected  by  Steam,  Acids,  Gasses,  Vapors  or  other 
injurious  influences,  that  would  render  a  mttal  roof 
perfectly  useless  in  a  lew  weeks.  It  is  air-tight  and 
is  not  affected  by  atmospheric  influences  of  any 
kind  ;  it  is  durable  and  reliable  in  winter  and  sum¬ 
mer,  and  positively  requires  no  care  or  attention 
whatever.  It  will  out-last  the  BUILDING  and  for 
Factories,  Chemical  Works,  Boiler  and  Engine- 
houses,  Depots,  Factories,  Mills  and  Warehouses, 
it  is  without  an  equal.  It  costs  less  than  tin  or 
slate  requires  no  painting,  can  be  walked  on  with¬ 
out  injury  and  must  not  be  considered  in  the  same 
light  and  prejudice  usually  bestowed  upon  what  are 
known  as  Tar  Roofs. 

BEWARE  OF  IMITATIONS,  for  the  durability  of 
our  Roofing  is  not  only  owing  to  our  great  care  in 
laying  on  a  roof  ;  but  also  in  the  scientific  prepara¬ 
tion  of  the  Material  we  use.  Circulars  and  testimo¬ 
nials  sent  upon  application.

TO  THE 

MAN  or  WOMAN, 

of  Sedentary  Habits. 

Bicycle  Riding  posesses  more  health 
giving  influences  than  all  the  Tonics  known  to 
the  realm  of  science. 

A  ten  mile  spin  with  all  of  one’s  senses 
keenly  alive  to  the  enchantment  of  the  sport, 
through  country  scenes,  pleasant,  picturesque 
and  beautiful,  with  lungs  inflated  with  pure  air, 
the  muscles  in  full  play  and  ready  for  a  brush, 
the  blood  tingling  with  renewed  vigor,  the  mind 
free  from  business  cares  the  whole  being  exal¬ 
ted  and  then  an  appetite  a  wolf  might  envy. 

Is  it  a  wonder  that  Cycle  Riding  has  its  vo¬ 
taries  by  the  thousands  ? 

The  Hart  Cycle  Company,  can  fit  you  out 
from  its  1890  patterns  now  in  stock,  the  Colum¬ 
bia’s  at  the  head,  and  it  will  prove  the  best  in¬ 
vestment  you  ever  made.

SEAG--STONE 

PAVEMENT. 

for  Side- walks  and  Floors  is  conceded  to  be  the  best  pro¬ 
duction  of  the  present  century. 

Slag-Stone  when  properly  combined  with  the  best 
grades  of  Portland  Cement  proiuces  an  artificial  Stone 
superior  in  appearance,  toughness,  tensile  and  crushing 
strength  to  any  combination  known  to  modern  science. 
Its  durability  is  greater  than  the  best  Flag-Stone  and 
for  that  reason  it  is  cheaper  than  brick. 

Being  a  non-absorbent  it  is  superior  for  Canneries, 
Slaughter  Houses,  Damp  Cellars,  Boiler  Houses,  Dye 
Houses  Etc. 

For  the  Cellars  of  Residences  it  expresses  the 
highest  standard  of  perfect  Sanitation  as  it  prevents  the 
escape  of  noxious  gases  from  the  underlying  soil,  and 
will  not  absorb  impurities.  It  prevents  dampness,  is 
easily  cleaned  and  renders  the  whole  house  more  com¬ 
fortable  and  healthful.

PHILADELPHIA,  WED’Y.  APRIL  23,  1890. 


For  the  convenience  of  members  of  the 
Master  Builders’  Exchange,  we  have  secured 
Box  No.  199  ai.  that  place,  where  any  communi¬ 
cations  for  publication  may  be  left. 


IF  you  feel  like  helping  some  of  the  many 
American  boys  to  learn  trades,  just  send  your 
little  subscription  to  the  Secretary  of  the 
Master  Builders’  Exchange,  and  mark  it  “For  the 
use  of  the  Trade  School.”  The  Trade  School  is 
in  the  hands  of  capable  and  responsible  busi¬ 
ness  men,  who  will  make  every  dollar  of  your 
subscription  go  as  far  as  possible  in  the  new 
industry  of  training  American  boys  into  self-sup¬ 
porting  American  Mechanics. 


What  a  glorious  American  humbug  our 
Grand  Jury  investigations  of  public  institutions 
are.  The  Grand  Jury  announces  its  coming  ! 
The  High-muckee-muck  of  the  institution 
awaits  its  arrival !  The  beatific  features  of  the 
institution  are  enlarged  upon,  and  a  good  din¬ 
ner  is  eaten,  but  the  poor  starved  devils  in 
loathsome  cells,  the  victims  of  brutal  keepers, 
come  in  for  no  share  of  the  Grand  Jury’s  atten¬ 
tion.  If  a  tithe  of  the  evidence  unearthed  by 
the  Philadelphia  Item ,  showing  the  brutality  of 
the  keepers  of  the  Eastern  Penitentiary  is  true, 
then  a  general  cleaning  out  of  the  institution, 
from  warden  to  keepers,  is  in  order,  and  the 
sooner  done  the  better.  What  we  need  is  not 
Prisoners’  Aid  Societies,  with  their  weak  pla¬ 
titudes  and  weaker  remonstrances,  but  a  secret 
detective  force,  under  the  control  of  our  judges, 
to  go  through  regular  incarceration  in  order  to 
get  at  the  true  inwardness  of  our  institutions. 
The  idea  may  not  seem  practicable,  but  news 
paper  reporters  have  made  short  trips  to  the 
country  for  just  Such  purposes,  and  why  not 
paid  detectives? 


The  appetite  of  Eastern  people  for  Western 
mortgage  investments,  ought  to  be  thoroughly 
surfeited.  What  percentage  of  the  many  mil¬ 
lions  of  dollars  representing  the  savings  of  hard 
working  men  and  women  will  ever  return  to  the 
pockets  of  the  poor  dupes  who  were  looking  for 
big  interest,  is  a  question  that  would  puzzle  even 
a  Philadelphia  lawyer.  Of  course  there  are  a 
few  companies,  such  as  the  Lombard  Invest¬ 
ment,  of  this  city,  that  are  officered  by  reputable 
business  men,  who  have  exercised  the  same 
care  in  the  selection  of  Western  risks,  at  a  fair 
rate  of  interest,  as  they  would  have  taken  in 
making  Eastern  investments  ;  but  these  few  are 
the  exception,  as  in  most  cases  the  business  has 
been  transacted  by  a  lot  of  sharpers,  who  cared 
little  about  the  safety  of  the  investments,  so 
long  as  they  raked  in  the  commissions  and  other 
perquisites.  The  legal  rate  of  interest,  or  less, 
is  generally  a  safe  guide  for  poor  people  with 
little  experience,  and  even  then  the  lambs  fre¬ 
quently  get  bitten  by  the  wolves,  consquently  it 
is  not  so  difficult  to  anticipate  the  outcome  of 
the  lamb-like  confidence  of  Eastern  investors  in 
the  schemes  of  the  Western  mortgage  wolves 
and  their  Eastern  agents  and  representatives. 
For  some  years  the  lambs  and  the  wolves  have 
been  following  the  Scriptural  injunction,  by  ly¬ 
ing  down  together.  It  will,  however,  soon  be 
eating  time,  what  then  ?

Building  and  Real  Estate  Notes. 

There  is  no  truth  in  the  report  that  Mr.  Sin- 
gerly  will  add  another  story  to  the  Record 
office  building. 

The  Scioto  Manufacturing  Mills,  Manayunk, 
burned  during  the  past  week,  will  be  rebuilt  at 
once,  by  the  present  owners  of  the  property. 

The  Jewish  Foster  Home,  Mill  street,  Ger¬ 
mantown,  will  be  enlarged.  Mr.  Mason  Hersh, 
is  president,  H.  A.  Jeitles,  1618  Chestnut  street, 
is  one  of  the  managers. 

D.  E.  Dallam,  514  Walnut  street,  has  sold  the 
property  at  the  NiW,  corner  of  Sixth  and  Arch 
streets  to  Silas  Yerkes,  Jr.,  who  will  improve  it 
for  business  purposes. 

The  Director  of  Public  Safety  has  been  autho¬ 
rized  to  lease  from  J.  Alex.  Simpson  the  prop¬ 
erty  at  Sixty-second-and-a-half  and  Vine  streets 
for  the  purpose  of  a  police  or  fire  station.  F. 
Amweg  will  probably  be  the  architect.  Cost, 
$32,000. 

W.  S.  Ware  will  erect  an  ice  factory  on  Callow- 
hill  street,  west  of  Twenty-sixth  street,  and  a 
boiler  and  engine  house  at  the  same  place.  A 
number  of  these  factories  have  been  established 
throughout  the  South,  and  this  is  but  a  branch  of 
the  same  syndicate  of  capitalists. 

Harry  R.  Shock,  builder,  Eighteenth  street 
and  Susquehanna  avenue,  has  just  purchased  a 
piece  of  land  on  Roberts’  avenue,  on  the  Ger¬ 
mantown  and  Norristown  Railroad,  and  will 
build  quite  a  number  of  houses  thereon,  to  be 
of  the  same  style  as  his  former  operations. 

The  committee  of  Friends  in  charge  of  the 
erection  of  the  proposed  John  M.  George  School 
has  decided  upon  a  location,  near  Newtown, 
Bucks  county,  Pa.,  known  as  the  “Worth 
Farm,”  and  takes  in  about  145  acres,  it  is  also 
proposed  to  begin  work  this  summer. 

The  property,  415  Locust  street,  will  be  re¬ 
built  by,  and  for  Mr.  Henry  Rowan,  general 
machinist  for  the  Philadelphia  Ledger ,  quite  an 
addition  is  proposed  for  the  rear,  which  will  be 
adapted  for  the  running  of  press  work  as  well  as 
storage  room. 

Charles  Stockham,  lumber  merchant,  of  Cam¬ 
den,  N.  J  ,  has  sold  200x400  feet  of  ground  on

THE  GREAT  IMPROVEMENT  IN 

ROOFING. 

We  are  now  ready  to  supply  the  product  of 
entirely  new  machinery  and  processes  just  com¬ 
pleted  by  which  we  not  only  have  greatly  improved 
the  strength  and  durability  of  our  well-known 
ASBESTOS  ROOFING,  but  have  also  secured  a 
degree  of  uniformity  never  before  attained  in  any 
similar  fabric.  We  ofEer  this  as  the  perfected 
form  of  the  portable  Roofing  which  we  have  manu¬ 
factured  with  continued  improvements  during  the 
past  thirty  years,  and  as  the  most  desirable  Roofing 
for  general  purposes. 

The  important  features  of  our  recent  improve¬ 
ments,  for  which  patents  have  been  allowed  in  this 
country  and  in  Europe,  are  described  in  our  new  cir¬

EHRET’S 
Slag -Stone  Composition 


HOOFIlOi 

has  stood  the  severest  tests  and  in  no  case  has  it 
ever  failed. 

It  is  Fire  Proof,  as  well  as  Damp  and  Moisture 
proof.  It  never  expands  or  contracts  ;  it  is  not  af¬ 
fected  by  Steam,  Acids,  Gasses,  Vapors  or  other 
injurious  influences,  that  would  render  a  metal  roof 
perfectly  useless  in  a  lew  weeks.  It  is  air-tight  and 
is  not  affected  by  atmospheric  influences. of  any 
kind  ;  it  is  durable  and  reliable  in  winter  and  sum¬ 
mer,  and  positively  requires  no  care  or  attention 
whatever.  It  will  out-last  the  BUILDING  and  for 
Factories,  Chemical  Works,  Boiler  and  Engine- 
houses,  Depots,  Factories,  Mills  and  Warehouses, 
it  is  without  an  equal.  It  costs  less  than  tin  or 
slate  requires  no  painting,  can  be  walked  on  with¬ 
out  injury  and  must  not  be  considered  in  the  same 
light  and  prejudice  usually  bestowed  upon  what  are 
known  as  Tar  Roofs. 

BEWARE  OF  IMITATIONS,  for  the  durability  of 
our  Roofing  is  not  only  owing  to  our  great  care  in 
laying  on  a  roof ;  but  also  in  the  scientific  prepara¬ 
tion  of  the  Material  we  use.  Circulars  and  testimo¬ 
nials  sent  upon  application.

Real  Estate  Brokers’  Company  of  this  city 
The  object  and  aim  of  this  organization,  if  we 
propei  ly  interpret  its  purposes,  is  to  secure,  as 
far  as  possible,  united  and  harmonious  action 
among  real  estate  men,  which,  when  explained, 
means  that  by  the  concerted  action  of  real 
estate  men,  through  this  organization,  many 
of  the  present  evils  are  to  be  corrected.  An 
effort  will  also  be  made  to  interest  our  own 
people  in  home  investments,  and  to  turn  the 
attention  of  those,  who  under  false  promises 
and  big  rate  of  interest,  are  yearly  inveigled 
into  Western  mortgage  schemes  only  to  meet 
with  disaster  and  ruin.  In  short,  the  purpose 
of  the  company  is  to  boom  Philadelphia  and  its 
vicinity  through  the  concerted  and  harmoniotls 
efforts  of  those  whose  business  interests  are  in¬ 
separably  allied  with  the  prosperity  and  deve¬ 
lopment  of  the  city  and  State. 

While  the  Brokers’  Company  is  to  be  an  or¬ 
ganization  composed  largely  of  real  estate  men, 
and  devoted  to  real  estate  interests,  it  is  the  in¬ 
tention  to  make  it  a  financial  concern,  possess¬ 
ing  business  posibilities  to  such  a  high  degree 
as  to  enable  it  to  earn  money,  not  only  for  its 
own  support,  but  also  in  keeping  with  the 
hopes  and  wishes  of  its  stockholders,  and  with 
the  even  more  satisfactory  results  of  regular  and 
profitable  dividends. 

The  methods  to  be  employed  by  the  company 
are  considered  to  be  the  best,  and  perhaps  the 


only  way  by  which  this  unity  of  action  can  be 
realized.  No  assessments  for  expenses  are  to  be 
levied  ;  in  fact  it  is  the  purpose  of  the  organiza¬ 
tion  to  make  all  investments  in  its  stock  as  profit¬ 
able  to  the  stockholders  as  possible.  The  char¬ 
ter  is  sufficiently  broad  to  enable  it  to  become  a 
money  making  concern,  in  fact,  so  broad  that  it 
would  be  impossible,  at  this  date,  to  obtain  such 
privileges  as  it  relegates  to  this  company. 

The  organization  will  have  a  membership 
composed  principally  of  real  estate  brokers  and 
agents,  conveyancers  and  lawyers,  real  estate 
owners  and  builders ;  and,  in  addition  to  the 
office,  there  will  be  a  room  for  consultation  re¬ 
garding  the  real  estate  and  building  interests 
Every  stockholder  owning  five  or  more  shares 
will  be  entitled  to  membership  and  to  register 
property  for  sale  or  to  rent,  which  will  be  daily 
advertised  by  the  company.  The  company  will 
transact  a  general  real  estate  business,  act  as 
agent  or  attorney,  collect  rents,  ground  rents, 
interest  on  mortgages,  dividends,  and  incomes. 
It  will  also  act  as  trustee,  guardian,  executor, 
administrator,  assignor,  receiver,  committee, 
attorney,  etc  ,  and  will  receive  and  execute 
trusts  of  every  description  under  the  appoint¬ 
ment  of  courts,  corporations  and  individuals, 
and  act  as  agent  for  selling,  registering  or  coun¬ 
tersigning  certificates  of  stock,  bonds,  etc.  It 
will  also  receive  and  receipt  for  wills  for  safe 
keeping,  without  charge,  and  receive  deposits 
of  money  payable  by  check  on  demand,  allow¬ 
ing  two  per  cent,  interest  thereon,  and' three 
per  cent,  on  deposits,  subject  to  two  weeks’ 


notice.  Mercantile  paper  will  not  be  dis¬ 
counted  but  the  company  will  confine  itself  to 
loans  on  marketable  collateral,  and  unusual 
facilities  will  be  ofiered  to  depositors  for  the  col¬ 
lection  of  notes,  coupons,  checks,  dividends, 
etc.,  on  any  point  in  the  United  Stages.  The  men 
identified  with  this  movement  are  well  knowm 
for  business  probity  and  high  financial  standing, 
and  will  bring  to  bear  upon  the  new  institution 
a  large  amount  of  real  estate  and  business  ex¬ 
perience.

pany  has  been  organized  and  will  erect  a  paper

PAVEMENT. 

for  Side- walks  and  Floors  is  conceded  to  be  the  best  pro¬ 
duction  of  the  present  century. 

Slag-Stone  when  properly  combined  with  ihe  best 
grades  of  Portland  Cement  produces  an  artificial  Stone 
Superior  in  appearance,  toughness,  tensile  and  crushing 
Strength  to  any  combination  known  to  modern  science. 
Its  durability  is  greater  than  the  best  Flag-Stone  and 
for  that  reason  it  is  cheaper  than  brick. 

Being  a  non-absorbent  it  is  superior  for  Canneries, 
Slaughter  Houses,  Damp  Cellars,  Boiler  Houses,  Dye 
Houses  Etc. 

For  the  Cellars  of  Residences  it  expresses  the 
highest  standard  of  perfect  Sanitation  as  it  prevents  the 
escape  of  noxious  gases  from  the  underlying  soil,  and 
will  not  absorb  impurities.  It  prevents  dampness,  is 
easily  cleaned  and  renders  the  whole  house  more  com¬ 
fortable  and  healthful.

Waxed  floors  afford  so  much  better  an  effect 
than  those  that  are  given  a  hard  oil  finish,  that 
the  labor  of  keeping  them  in  condition  should 
not  be  allowed  to  weigh  against  their  adoption 
Whilst  repolishing  with  weighted  brushes,  pre¬ 
viously  sprinkling  on  the  surface  white  wax 
dissolved  in  alcohol,  not  only  are  scratche- 
erased,  but  the  hue  is  steadily  improved,  ob 
taiuing  in  the  end  a  most  complete  mirror- 
like  finish.  The  practice  of  master  house- 
painters  in  waxing  floors  varies  considerably. 
An  excellent  method  is  to  apply  to  the  floor  a 
thin  coat  of  wax  and  shellac,  and,  after  a  slight 
rubbing,  let  it  stand  to  harden;  then  to  give  it 
a  coating  of  more  wax,  ruboing  up  to  a  polish. 
This  will  render  a  floor  beautiful  even  without 
rugs,  and  it  can  be  both  danced  and  walked 
upon. — Exchange. 


One  of  the  chief  reasons  for  the  failure  of 
cheap  houses  to  look  well  is  the  fact  that  they 
are  overloaded  with  ornament.  If  those  who 
wish  to  build  cheaply  would  be  content  to  build 
plainly  the  results  would  be  more  satisfactory 
to  the  eye.  The  same  fault  is  noticed  in  cheap 
furniture.  It  is  always  disfigured  with  fancy 
turns  and  machine  carving,  while  to  find  a  piece 
of  plain,  substantial  finish,  one  must  look  at  the 
high  priced  goods.  Too  mauy  men  only  able  to 
build  a  cottage,  load  it  with  w’eak  imitations  of 
the  handsome  decorations  of  the  palace,  and  the 
result  is  thoroughly  inharmonious  In  the  cheap 
house  let  plainness  of  construction  reign  from 
foundation  to  gable.  Let  the  ornamentation  be, 
not  in  the  woodwork,  but  in  the  painting 
Then  the  effects  may  be  whatever  desired  and 
may  be  changed  at  the  pleasure  of  the  owner  —

has  stood  the  severest  tests  and  in  no  case  has  it 
ever  failed. 


It  is  Fire  Proof,  as  well  as.  Damp  and  Moisture 
proof.  It  never  expands  or  contracts  ;  it  is  not  af¬ 
fected  by  Steam,  Acids,  Gasses,  Vapors  or  other 
injurious  influences,  that  would  render  a  metal  roof 
perfectly  useless  in  a  few  weeks.  It  is  air-tight  and 
is  not  affected  by  atmospheric  influences  of  any 
kind  ;  it  is  durable  and  reliable  in  winter  and  sum¬ 
mer,  and  positively  requires  no  care  or  attention 
whatever.  It  will  out-last  the  BUILDING  and  for 
Factories,  Chemical  Works,  Boiler  and  Engine- 
houses,  Depots,  Factories,  Mills  and  Warehouses, 
it  is  without  an  equal.  It  costs  less  than  tin  or 
slate  requires  no  painting,  can  be  walked  on  with¬ 
out  injury  and  must  not  be  considered  in  the  same 
light  and  prejudice  usually  bestowed  upon  what  are 
known  as  Tar  Roofs. 

BEWARE  OF  IMITATIONS,  for  the  durability  of 
our  Roofing  is  not  only  owing  to  our  great  care  in 
laying  on  a  roof ;  but  also  in  the  scientific  prepara¬

The  Exchange  of  the  Operative  Builders’ 
Fo'mally  Opened. 

On  Tuesday  evening,  13th  instant,  the  Opera¬ 
tive  Builders  Association,  of  Philadelphia,  ex¬ 
tended  a  generous  welcome  to  its  many  friends, 
the  occasion  being  the  fi  rmal  opening  of  its 
Exchang®,  at  the  southeast  corner  of  Broad 
street  and  Columbia  avenue.  Mr.  W.  T.  B. 
Roberts,  the  President,  presided  at  the  banquet, 
and,  in  a  terse  speech,  outlined  the  purposes  of 
the  Exchange,  particularly  emphasing  the  fact 
that  it  was  not  intended  as  an  opposition  organi¬ 
zation  to  the  Master  Builders’  Exchange,  as  there 
were  many  who  were  membeis  of  both  organiza¬ 
tions;  The  purposes  of  the  operators  were  solely 
intended  to  advance  the  interests  of  the  opera¬ 
tive  builders  in  procuring  from  the  city  the  con 
sideration  and  facilities,  such  as  street  work, 
etc.,  to  which  they  were  justly  entitled,  as, 
through  the  enterprise  of  the  operative  builders,, 
hundreds  of  thousands  of  dollars  were  yearly 
added  to  the  city’s  revenue. 

Director  Wagner  followed  Mr.  Roberts  in  a 
lengthy  speech,  in  which  he  placed  the  response 
bility  upon  City  Councils  for  the  annoyance  and 
serious  loss  the  builders  of  the  city  had  suffered 
during  the  past,  for  the  want  of  gas  and  water 
pipes  and  the  outlook  for  1890,  Mr.  Wagner 
stated,  was  no  better  ;  for  unless  Councils  gave 
him  the  money,  no  pipe  could  be  forthcoming 

Ex-Mayor  Smith  followed  General  Wagner  in 
a  witty  speech;  and,  with  many  palpable  hits, 
kept  the  guests  roaring  with  laughter. 

The  organization  has  already  acquired  a  mem¬ 
bership  of  one  hundred  and  twenty,  and  em¬ 
braces,  perhaps,  more  men  who  have  enhanced 
the  value  and  beauty  of  their  city  than  any  or¬ 
ganization  of  any  kind  that  has  ever  existed. 
Besides  operative  builders,  all  the  trades  identi¬ 
fied  with  the  building  interests  are  eligible  for 
membership. 


The  Master  Builders’  Reception  to  the 
Philadelphia  Architects. 

Never  before,  perhaps,  in  the  history  of  man¬ 
kind  have  the  master  builders,  as  a  corporate 
body  been  honored  with  the  presence  of  such  a 
large  and  distinguished  number  ot  professional 
gentlemen,  as  that  gathered  in  the  hall  of  the 
Master  Builders’  Exchange  in  response  to  an 
invitation  extended  to  the  architects  of  Philadel¬ 
phia,  on  Thursday  Eve,.  15th  inst.  The  occasion 
was  an  event  that  will  be  long  remembered,  not 
only  from  its  important  significance  as  inaugu¬ 
rating  a  social  as  well  as  a  higher  and  more  ex¬ 
alted  plane  of  business  relationship  between 
architects  and  builders  throughout  the  world, 
for  such  an  example  is  sure  to  be  followed,  but 
also,  because  the  occasion  was  the  conception 
of  Philadelphia  builders,  members  of  what  is 
considered  to  be  the  best  organized  Master 
Builders’  Exchange  in  America. 

With  unstinted  hospitality,  enhanced  by  the 
warmest  possible  expression  of  esteem,  the  hon¬ 


ored  guests  were  welcomed  by  the  President  of 
the  Exchange,  Mr.  Stacy  Reeves. 

The  menu  was  an  elaborate  one,  prepared  by 
Caterer  Wiener.  The  speeches  were  terse,  bril¬ 
liant  and  witty,  the  guests  warmly  entering  into 
the  spirit  of  the  occasion,  clearly  demonstrat¬

SEAG-STONE 

PAVEMENT. 

for  Side-walks  and  Floors  is  conceded  to  be  the  best  pro¬ 
duction  of  the  present  century. 

Slag-Stone  when  properly  combined  with  the  best 
grades  of  Portland  Cement  produces  an  artificial  Stone 
superior  in  appearance,  toughness,  tensile  and  crushing 
strength  to  any  combination  known  to  modern  science. 
Its  durability  is  greater  than  the  best  Flag-Stone  and 
for  that  reason  it  is  cheaper  than  brick. 

Being  a  non-absorbent  it  is  superior  for  Canneries, 
Slaughter  Houses,  Damp  Cellars,  Boiler  Houses,  Dye 
Houses  Etc. 

For  the  Cellars  of  Residences  it  expresses  the 
highest  standard  of  perfect  Sanitation  as  it  prevents  the 
escape  of  noxious  gases  from  the  underlying  soil,  and 
will  not  absorb  impurities.  It  prevents  dampness,  is 
easily  cleaned  and  renders  the  whole  house  more  com¬ 
fortable  and  healthful.

An  Interesting  Book  on  Bricks. 

Isometrical  Diagrams  of  Plain  Molded  and 
Ornamental  Bricks  Manufactured  by  the  Peer¬ 
less  Brick  Company  of  Philadelphia,  with  Notes 
on  their  use  in  the  Construction  and  Ornamen¬ 
tation  of  Buildings,  is  the  title  of  a  quarto 
volume  of  eighty  pages  just  issued  by  the  Com¬ 
pany  that  has  pioneered  the  introduction  of  or¬ 
namental  brick  into  the  architecture  of  this 
country  and  brought  it  to  the  utmost  perfection. 
In  the  ordinary  acceptation  of  the  term  this  is  a 
trade  catalogue,  but  its  title  shows  that  it  is  very 
much  more,  and  an  inspection  of  its  pages  will 
prove  it.  It  is  really  an  elaborate  treatise  upon 
bricks  and  their  various  practical  and  artistic 
uses.  It  contains  illustrations  of  a  large  number 
of  the  ornamental  bricks  manufactured  by  the 
Peerless  Brick  Company,  and  also  drawings  of 
many  different  shaped  bricks  for  arch  work  and 
other  irregular  constructions.  Pictures  of  fire¬ 
places,  mantel-pieces  and  sections  of  buildings 
are  also  given,  showing  the  various  artistic  uses 
these  bricks  can  be  put  to  in  practice.  Brick  is 
daily  receiving  its  due  recognition  as  the  most 
durable  and  most  pliable  material  for  architec¬ 
tural  work.  No  material  withstands  the  ele¬ 
ments  of  fire,  water  and  air  equal  to  burnt  clay, 
and  no  material  can  be  handled  in  so  many  diffe¬ 
rent  ways  and  with  such  diverse  effects  as  bricks. 
It  is  owing  to  these  facts  that  the  Peerless  Brick 
Company  began  the  introduction  of  its  beauti¬ 
ful  and  artistic  manufactures,  and  has  made  a 
name  for  itself  co  extensive  with  the  length  and 
breadth  of  the  land.  The  color  of  brick  is  no 
longer  synonomous  with  red  ;  buff,  brown,  gray, 
white  and  black  are  also  made  by  tbe  Peerless 
Brick  Company.  The  cover  of  this  catalogue  is 
thoroughly  in  keeping  with  the  artistic  charac¬ 
ter  of  the  products  of  the  Peerless.  The  design 
on  the  front  exhibits  the  works  of  the  Company 
at  Old  York  Road  and  Nicetown  Lane,  which 
cover  about  seventy  acres,  seen  through  a 
broken  arch  of  ornamental  brick,  and  is  en¬ 
graved  on  steel  and  printed  on  fine  parchment 
paper.  1  he  back  cover  has  an  engraving  of  a 
fire-place  at  the  works  of  the  Company.  Its 
office  is  in  the  building  of  the  Builders’  Ex¬ 
change,  where  it  has  a  very  handsome  structure 
exhibiting  a  variety  of  bricks  and  their  uses. 
The  title  page  has  for  its  motto  this  inscription, 
on  a  brick  pyramid,  taken  from  Sir  Gardiner 
Wilkinson’s  work:  “Compare  me  not  with 
the  stone  pyramid,  for  I  am  as  superior  to  them 
as  Jove  is  to  other  gods.  Thus  was  I  made  ; 
men  probing  with  poles  the  bottom  of  a  lake  drew 
forth  the  mud,  which  adhered  to  them,  and 
formed  it  iuto  bricks.” 


Population  of  the  Large  Cities. 

In  1880  there  were  in  the  United  States 
twenty  cities  with  a  population  of  100,000  or 
over.  Judging  by  conservative  local  estimates 
the  census  of  1890  will  sbow  as  many  as  thirty, 
and  possibly  thirty-five  cities  each  having  at 
least  100,000  inhabitants. 


New  York  and  Philadelphia  are  still  plainly 
at  the  top.  But  the  third  place  passes  from 
Brooklyn,  rapidly  as  she  is  growing,  to  Chicago. 
Although  Brooklyn  is  now  the  fourth  city  in 
point  of  population,  she  will  stand  in  the  census 
of  1890  with  a  population  nearly  equal  to  that  of 
Philadelphia  in  1880.  St.  Louis  and  Baltimore, 
which  were  behind  Boston  in  1880,  are  probably 
ahead  of  her  to-day,  and  Boston  drops  from  the 
fifth  to  the  seventh  place  in  the  list. 

The  next  four  cities — Cincinnati,  San  Fran¬ 
cisco,  New  Orleans  and  Cleveland — hold  their 
rank  in  the  last  census.  Then  we  come  to  an¬ 
other  drop,  Pittsburg  goes  down  three  points, 
and,  its  former  place,  as  the  twelfth  city,  is 
taken  by  Minneapolis,  which  was  as  low  down 
as  number  thirty-eight  in  the  last  census. — 
Once  a  Week. 


Iron  Bricks  are  said  to  be  in  satisfactory  use 
in  Germany  for  street  paving. 

Porch  steps,  if  of  wood,  should  have  air  holes 
at  their  ends.  It  may  be  well  to  cleat  the  treads 
to  prevent  warping,  which  leaves  dished  places 
to  collect  rain  or  sleet.

THE  GREAT  IMPROVEMENT  IN 

ROOFING. 

We  are  now  ready  to  supply  the  product  of 
entirely  new  machinery  and  processes  just  com¬ 
pleted  by  which  we  not  only  have  greatly  improved 
the  strength,  and  durability  of  our  well-known 
ASBESTOS  ROOFING,  but  have  also  secured  a 
degree  of  uniformity  never  before  attained  in  any 
similar  fabric.  We  offer  this  as  the  perfected 
form  of  the  portable  Roofing  which  we  have  manu¬ 
factured  with  continued  improvements  during  the 
past  thirty  years,  and  as  the  most  desirable  Roofing 
for  general  purposes. 

The  important  features  of  our  recent  improve¬ 
ments,  for  which  patents  have  been  allowed  in  this 
country  and  in  Europe,  are  described  in  our  new  cir¬ 
cular,  which,  with  samples,  will  be  sent  free  by  mail. 

Our  Asbestos  Roofing  is  now  in  use  upon  Factor¬ 
ies,  Foundries,  Cotton  Gins,  Railroad  Bridges,  Cars, 
Steamboats,  etc.,  in  all  parts  of  the  world.

feet,  and  weighs  with  Asbestos  Roof  Coating,  ready 
for  shipment,  about  85  pounds  to  100  square  feet. 

It  is  adapted  for  steep  or  flat  roofs  in  all  climates, 
and  can  be  readily  applied  by  unskilled  workmen.

Roofing,  purchasers  are  cautioned.

It  is  just  the  thing  for  inside  and  outside  work  of

Is  without  exception  the  Best  Roofing 
Paint  in  the  World.

Heat,  Cold,  Salt  Air  or  Salt  Water,  and  has  been  on  roofs 
for  over  10  years  without  repainting. 

It  will  render  the  finest  fabric  or  even  tissue  paper 
absolutely  water  proof. 

It  is  without  an  equal  for  Tin  or  Iron  Work,  Steam 
Boat  Decks,  Wooden  or  Iron  Vessels,  and  for  durability 
it  has  no  equal  on  the  Globe.

EHRET’S 

Slag -Stone  Composition 

HOOFll&i 

has  stood  the  severest  tests  and  in  no  case  has  it 
ever  failed. 

It  is  Fire  Proof,  as  well  as  Damp  and  Moisture 
proof.  It  never  expands  or  contracts  ;  it  is  not  af¬ 
fected  by  Steam,  Acids,  Gasses,  Vapors  or  other 
injurious  influences,  that  would  render  a  metal  roof 
perfectly  useless  in  a  few  weeks.  It  is  air-tight  and 
is  not  affected  by  atmospheric  influences  of  any 
kind  ;  it  is  durable  and  reliable  in  winter  and  sum¬ 
mer,  and  positively  requires  no  care  or  attention 
whatever.  It  will  out-last  the  BUILDING  and  for 
Factories,  Chemical  Works,  Boiler  and  Engine- 
houses,  Depots,  Factories,  Mills  and  Warehouses, 
it  is  without  an  equal.  It  costs  less  than  tin  or 
slate  requires  no  painting,  can  be  walked  on  with¬ 
out  injury  and  must  not  be  considered  in  the  same 
light  and  prejudice  usually  bestowed  upon  what  are 
known  as  Tar  Roofs. 

BEWARE  OF  IMITATIONS,  for  the  durability  of 
our  Roofing  is  not  only  owing  to  our  great  care  in 
laying  on  a  roof  ;  but  also  in  the  scientific  prepara¬ 
tion  of  the  Material  we  use.  Circulars  and  testimo¬

A  PROCESS  has  lately  been  invented  of  bronz¬ 
ing  steel  surfaces  so  as  to  prevent  the  possibility 
of  rust.  The  steel,  which  must  be  free  from  all 
impurities,  is  exposed  for  two  or  three  minutes 
to  the  vapors  of  a  mixture  of  hydrochloric  and 
nitric  acids  in  equal  parts,  at  a  temperature  of 
from  550°  to  650°  F.  When  the  steel  cools  it  is 
rubbed  over  with  ordinary  vaseline,  and  again 
heated  until  the  vaseline  begins  to  decompose  ; 
this  treatment  with  the  vaseline  is  repeated : 
once.  By  mixing  acetic  acid  with  the  other 
acids  a  lighter  color  is  produced. — American 
Journal  of  Railzvay  Appliances. 


In  France,  an  organized  method  has  been 
adopted  regarding  the  laying  down  of  floors.  It  ! 
consists  iu  embodying  the  flooring  in  asphalt 
instead  of  on  sleepers.  These  new  floors  are  | 
used  extensively  for  the  ground  floors  of  bar¬ 
racks  and  hospitals,  as  well  as  for  churches  and  j 
courts  of  law.  For  such  floors,  pieces  of  oak, 
usually  2l/z  to  4  inches  broad,  12  to  30  inches1 
long,  and  one  inch  thick  are  pressed  down  into 
a  layer  of  hot  asphalt  not  quite  half  an  inch 
thick  in  the  well-known  herring  bone  pattern,  j 
The  advantages  of  this  flooring  is  said  to  be  . 

1.  Dampness  from  below,  and  its  conse-  ; 
quences,  rot  is  hereby  prevented. 

2.  Floors  may  be  cleaned  quickly,  and  with 
the  least  amount  of  water,  insuring  rapid  drying. 

3.  Vermin  cannot  accumulate  in  tke  joints. 

4.  Unhealthy  exhalations  from  the  soil  can-  : 


not  penetrate  into  living  rooms.  Asphalt  being 
impermeable  to  damp,  rooms  become  healthy, 
even  if  they  are  not  vaulted  underneath.  In  build-  j 
ings  with  several  stories,  as  in  hospitals,  the 
vitiated  air  of  the  lower  rooms  cannot  ascend,  j 
an  object  which  has  hitherto  not  been  possible 
to  attain  by  any  other  means  known. 

5.  The  layer  of  asphalt  will  also  prevent  the 
spreading  of  fire  from  one  floor  to  another  in 
case  of  conflagration.

PHILADELPHIA,  WED’Y.  JUNE  4,  1890. 


For  the  convenience  of  members  of  the 
Master  Builders’  Exchange,  we  have  secured 
Box  No.  199  at  that  place,  where  any  communi¬ 
cations  for  publication  may  be  left. 


Some  business  men  carry  their  friendship  into 
business  matters  entirely  too  far,  in  other  words, 
there  is  one  class  of  business  men  who  feel  that 
they  must  be  patronized  for  friendship’s  sake, 
regardless  of  price  or  quality,  and  they  feel  cut 
and  hurt  if  they  learn  of  some  good  friend  hav¬ 
ing  purchased  from  some  one  else,  even  at  a 
saving.  Another  class  of  one’s  business  friends 
presume  upon  their  friendship  even  to  the  ex¬ 
tent  of  forgetting,  or  neglecting  pay-day  alto¬ 
gether  ;  and,  if  gently  reminded  that  such  an 
account  is  over  due,  they  become  profuse  in  pro¬ 
mises,  until  the  poor  victim  of  too  much  of  this 
kind  of  friendship  is  compelled  to  use  vigorous 
and  distasteful  means  to  obtain  that  which  is  his 
by  right,  and  which  another  man  would  have  had 
long  before.  The  consequences,  in  such  cases, 
are  easily  anticipated,  for  while  the  friend 
creditor  simply  looks  upon  the  whole  transac¬ 
tion  from  a  purely  business  stand-point,  and  is 
fully  justified  for  having  pushed  things,  the 
friend  debtor  becomes,  in  his  own  estimation, 
the  picture  of  injured  innocence  ;  and,  finally, 
promises  himself  “never  to  buy  again  from  that 
man,”  nor  ever  regard  him  as  his  friend  again. 
This  kind  of  business  presumption  on  the  part 
of  business  friends  will  exist  as  long  as  there 
are  men  to  do  business,  and  business  to  be  done. 
It  is  altogether  wrong,  but  there  is  no  remedy 
for  it,  and  real  estate  men,  having  control  of 
properties,  suffer,  perhaps,  in  this  respect,  as 
much  as  any  other  class  of  our  business  men. 

Mr.  A.  rents  a  house  and  agrees  to  pay 
monthly,  in  advance,  he  gets  possession  under 
a  promise  to  send  a  check  around  in  a  day  or 


two,  B.  remits  the  amount,  less  the  commission, 
to  the  owner,  in  anticipation  of  A.’s  check. 
Days,  weeks  and  a  -whole  month  gone,  and  a 
second  due,  and  no  check  conies,  and  all  this 
trouble  and  annoyance  to  B.,  because  Mr.  A. 
is  his  friend.  Better  keep  friendship  out  of 
business.  Pay  your  friends  as  promptly  as  you 
are  compelled  to  pay  strangers,  patronize  your 
friends  as  long  as  their  business  methods  justify 
it,  and  steer  clear  of  the  friend  who  is  constanty 
presuming  upon  your  mutual  friendship,  for  he 
will  make  your  friendship  for  him,  a  costly 
luxury  in  the  end. 


Byzantine  Rugs. 

A  novelty  in  American  textile  products  is  the 
Byzantine  rug,  now  being  manufactured  under 
patents  owned  by  the  carpet  manufacturing 
firm  of  McCallum  &  Sloan,  1012  and  1014 
Chestnut  street.  The  goods  are  reversible, 
either  side  being  equally  beautiful.  It  is  said 
that  these  rugs  are  superior  to  the  Smyrna,  and 
are  equal  for  beauty  and  durability  to  the  me¬ 
dium  grades  of  Turkish.  The  colorings  are 
artistic,  and  these  rugs  represent  a  superior 
floor  covering,  equal  to  many  of  the  imported 
rugs  at  a  very  much  less  price.  They  are  just 
the  thing  for  offices,  and  have  already  become 
very  popular  among  housekeepers,  and  more 
particularly  for  country  homes. 


An  admirable  step  in  the  interests  of  fire  pro¬ 
tection  and  the  safety  of  the  firemen  is  about  to 
be  taken  by  the  Albany  Street  Railway  Com¬ 
pany,  by  the  establishment  of  a  fire  wagon. 
This,  it  is  announced,  will  be  held  in  readiness 
day  and  night,  to  go  out  in  response  to  alarms 
that  may  indicate  a  fire  in  any  one  of  the  streets 
through  which  the  company’s  tracks  pass.  Two 
men  will  be  in  charge  of  it  and  it  will  be  their 
duty  to  look  after  the  company’s  wires,  to  cut 
them  where  necessary,  so  that  the  firemen  may 
not  be  hindered  in  their  work,  and  also  to  see  to 
it  that  the  severed  wires  are  properly  secured  so 
that  no  one  may  suffer  from  stray  currents  of 
electricity.  That  such  a  system  will  be  appre¬ 
ciated  by  the  members  of  the  fire  department 
goes  without  saying.  The  example  of  the  Al¬ 
bany  company  is  one  worthy  of  following  else¬ 
where. — Exchange.

SEAO-STONE 

PAVEMENT. 

for  Side- walks  and  Floors  is  conceded  to  be  the  best  pro¬ 
duction  of  the  present  century. 

Slag-Stone  when  properly  combined  with  the  best 
grades  of  Portland  Cement  produces  an  artificial  Stone 
superior  in  appearance,  toughness,  tensile  and  crushing 
strength  to  any  combination  known  to  modern  science. 
Its  durability  is  greater  than  the  best  Flag-Stone  and 
for  that  reason  it  is  cheaper  than  brick. 

Being  a  non-absorbent  it  is  superior  for  Canneries, 
Slaughter  Houses,  Damp  Cellars,  Boiler  Houses,  Dye 
Houses  Etc. 

For  the  Cellars  of  Residences  it  expresses  the 
highest  standard  of  perfect  Sanitation  as  it  prevents  the 
escape  of  noxious  gases  from  the  underlying  soil,  and 
will  not  absorb  impurities.  It  prevents  dampness,  is 
easily  cleaned  and  renders  the  whole  house  more  com¬ 
fortable  and  healthful.

days,  that  the  Hydraulic  Press  Brick  company, 
of  St.  Louis,  Mo. ,  were  about  to  purchase  land 
in  this  vicinity,  for  a  new  investment  in  the 
manufacture  of  that  article,  but  it  can  be  traced 
to  no  reliable  authority.  H.  C.  Webster,  presi¬ 
dent  of  thejardin  Brick  company,  thinks  that 
about  all  the  available  land  having  brick  clay 
on  it,  has  been  purchased  by  local  makers.

in  an  extra  appropriation  of  $60,000,  and  as  soon 
as  it  has  become  a  law,  the  original  programme 
will  be  carried  out  in  building,  the  plans  as  pre¬ 
pared  by  Jas.  H.  Wiudrem,  Government  archi 
tect,  will  be  re-submitted,  for  new  bids  on  the

sent  to  build  up  a  town  site  at  Ridley  Park,  on 
the  P.  W.  &  B.  R.  R.,  whilst  the  scheme  is  yet 
in  embryo,  enough  has  developed  to  show  that 
it  will  be  consummated  and  carried  to  com¬ 
pletion  as  they  now  have  a  positive  option  on 
100  acres  of  valuable  land  in  close  proximity  to 
the  station.

Twenty-second  street  to  Germantown,  although 
strenuously  opposed  by  many  of  the  rich  proper¬ 
ty  holders  around  and  about  Tioga,  it  is  now 
more  than  probable,  that  this  permission  will 
be  granted  the  Traction  company  and  the  road 
will  be  bnilt  in  a  short  time.

Men  who  Build 

HOUSES! 

Need  To  Buy  Ranges. 

If  they  themselves  occupy  them 
of  course  the  ranges  should  be 
good  ones.  If  they  intend  selling 
or  renting  them  good  ranges  in  the 
kitchen  will  help  the  Builder  or 
Owner  to  sell  or  rent  to  better  ad¬ 
vantage.  In  either  case 

Does  it  Pay 

to  put  in  cheap  ranges  of  no  par¬

EHRBT’S 

Slag -Stone  Composition 

ROOFING, 

has  stood  the  severest  tests  and  in  no  case  has  it 
ever  failed. 

It  is  Fire  Proof,  as  well  as  Damp  and  Moisture 
proof.  It  never  expands  or  contracts  ;  it  is  not  af¬ 
fected  by  Steam,  Acids,  Gasses,  Vapors  or  other 
injurious  influences,  that  would  render  a  metal  roof 
perfectly  useless  in  a  lew  weeks.  It  is  air-tight  and 
is  not  affected  by  atmospheric  influences  of  any 
kind  ;  it  is  durable  and  reliable  in  winter  and  sum¬ 
mer,  and  positively  requires  no  care  or  attention 
whatever.  It  will  out-last  the  BUILDING  and  for 
Factories,  Chemical  Works,  Boiler  and  Engine 
houses,  Depots,  Factories,  Mills  and  Warehouses, 
it  is  without  an  equal.  It  costs  less  than  tin  or 
slate  requires  no  painting,  can  be  walked  on  with¬ 
out  injury  and  must  not  be  considered  in  the  same 
light  and  prejudice  usually  bestowed  upon  what  are 
known  as  Tar  Roofs. 

BEWARE  OF  IMITATIONS,  for  the  durability  of 
our  Roofing  is  not  only  owing  to  our  great  care  in 
laying  on  a  roof  ;  but  also  in  the  scientific  prepara¬ 
tion  of  the  Material  we  use.  Circulars  and  testimo¬ 
nials  sent  upon  application.

PHILADELPHIA,  WED’Y.  JUNE  18,  1890. 


For  the  convenience  of  members  of  the 
Master  Builders’  Exchange,  we  have  secured 
Box  No.  199  at  that  place,  where  any  communi¬ 
cations  for  publication  may  be  left. 


ThB  statement  of  the  Central  Saving  Fund, 
Trust  and  Deposit  Company,  1326  Chestnut 
street,  Phila.,  shows  a  net  profit  of  #11,724.36 
for  the  first  eleven  months  of  its  organization. 
This  is  certainly  a  very  creditable  showing,  and 
speaks  volumes  of  praise  for  its  management. 


Davis  &  Harvey’s  sale  on  Saturday  last, 
at  Narberth  Park,  Elm  Station,  Penna.  R.  R., 
resulted  in  the  sale  of  some  thirty-six  lots,  nett¬ 
ing  about  #30,000.  A  large  number  of  business 
men  were  in  attendance,  and  the  £ale  was  han¬ 
dled  with  consummate  skill  by  the  auctioneer, 
Mr.  T.  Nelson  Davis. 


Davis  &.  Harvey’s 

GREAT  SALE  OF  BUILDING  LOTS  AT  MOORES 
STATION. 

The  present  popularity  of  Moores  Station, 
Delaware  Co.,  for  suburban  residences  arises 
from  its  accessibility  to  Philadelphia,  and  its 
high,  peculiarly  healthful  surroundings.  It  is 
situated  directly  at  the  station,  in  a  beautiful 
country,  and  is  only  nine  miles  from  Broad 
street  station,  via  the  main  line  of  the  P.  W.  and 
B.  R.  R.  There  are  forty-eight  trains  daily,  and 
monthly  tickets  can  be  purchased,  so  that  the 
cost  of  transportation  amounts  to  but  7 )4  cents 
a  trip. 

On  Saturday,  June  28,  instant,  Messrs.  Davis 
&  Harvey,  the  real  estate  auctioneers,  will  sell 
for  account  of  J.  L.  Galloway,  200  choice  build¬ 
ing  lots  situated  on  the  main  avenues,  and  well 
adapted  for  building  operations,  besides  which 
eight  brick  and  frame  Queen  Anne  cottages, 
containing  from  nine  to  fifteen  rooms  and  all 
modern  conveniences,  will  be  sold.  These 
dwellings  represent  the  best  work  and  material 
as  they  were  constructed  as  sample  residences, 
and  intended  to  give  strength  and  character  to 
the  place.  The  terms  of  this  sale  are  specially 
easy,  and  a  large  crowd  of  buyers  is  anticipated. 
For  particulars  see  advertisement  on  first  page.

SIvAG-STONE 

PAVEMENT. 

for  Side-walks  and  Floors  is  conceded  to  be  the  best  pro¬ 
duction  of  the  present  century. 

Slag-Stone  when  properly  combined  with  the  best 
grades  of  Portland  Cement  produces  an  artificial  Stone 
superior  in  appearance,  toughness,  tensile  and  crushing 
strength  to  any  combination  known  to  modern  science. 
Its  durability  is  greater  than  the  best  Flag-Stone  and 
for  that  reason  it  is  cheaper  than  brick. 

Being  a  non-absorbent  it  is  superior  for  Canneries, 
Slaughter  Houses,  Damp  Cellars,  Boiler  Houses,  Dye 
Houses  Etc. 


For  the  Cellars  of  Residences  it  expresses  the 
highest  standard  of  perfect  Sanitation  as  it  prevents  the 
escape  of  noxious  gases  from  the  underlying  soil,  and 
will  not  absorb  impurities.  It  prevents  dampness,  is 
easily  cleaned  and  renders  the  whole  house  more  com¬ 
fortable  and  healthful.

PHILADELPHIA,  WED’Y.  JUNE  25,  1890. 


For  the  convenience  of  members  of  the 
Master  Builders’  Exchange,  we  have  secured 
Box  No.  199  at  that  place,  where  any  communi¬ 
cations  for  publioation  may  be  left. 


Fully  two-third9  of  the  entire  copper  product 
of  the  United  States  is  now  consumed  for  elec¬ 
trical  purposes.  This,  of  course,  has  advanced 
the  price  fully  thirty-three  per  cent. 


A  special  edition  of  this  Journal  will  be 
issued  on  July  9,  prox.  It  will  contain  our 
semi  annual  report  of  the  building  operations  of 
Philadelphia  for  the  first  six  months  of  1890. 
Advertisers  will  do  well  to  make  a  note  of  this, 
and  engage  space  at  as  early  a  day  as  possible. 


For  the  information  of  our  readers,  we  would 
say,  the  question  of  amount  of  glasses  or  win¬ 
dows  to  be  contained  in  bay  windows  annexed 
to  houses  being  erected  having  been  referred  to 
the  City  Solicitor  for  an  opinion,  Nelson  Bar¬ 
rett,  assistant  to  Mr.  Warwick,  has  stated  that 
nothing  definite  is  stated  in  the  law  as  to  the 
amount,  so  that  it  is  now,  as  before,  an  open 
question,  and  will  be  until  such  time  as  a  test 
case  shall  be  made  before  the  courts,  when  a 
legal  construction  will  be  rendered.

EHRET’S 

Slag -Stone  Composition 

EDOflNQ, 

has  stood  the  severest  tests  and  in  no  case  has  it 
ever  failed. 

It  is  Fire  Proof,  as  well  as  Damp  and  Moisture 
proof.  It  never  expands  or  contracts  ;  it  is  not  af¬ 
fected  by  Steam,  Acids,  Gasses,  Vapors  or  other 
injurious  influences,  that  would  render  a  metal  roof 
perfectly  useless  in  a  lew  weeks.  It  is  air-tight  and 
is  not  affected  by  atmospheric  influences  of  any 
kind  ;  it  is  durable  and  reliable  in  winter  and  sum¬ 
mer,  and  positively  requires  no  care  or  attention 
whatever.  It  will  out-last  the  BUILDING  and  for 
Factories,  Chemical  Works,  Boiler  and  Engine- 
houses,  Depots,  Factories,  Mills  and  Warehouses, 
it  is  without  an  equal.  It  costs  less  than  tin  or 
slate  requires  no  painting,  can  be  walked  on  with¬ 
out  injury  and  must  not  be  considered  in  the  same 
light  and  prejudice  usually  bestowed  upon  what  are 
known  as  Tar  Roofs. 

BEWARE  OF  IMITATIONS,  for  the  durability  of 
our  Roofing  is  not  only  owing  to  our  great  care  in 
laying  on  a  roof  ;  but  also  in  the  scientific  prepara¬ 
tion  of  the  Material  we  use.  Circulars  and  testimo¬

The  Ounce  of  Prevention  in  Building  Con¬ 
struction. 

In  no  one  thing  is  the  inconsistency  of  human 
nature  more  apparent  than  in  the  choice  of 
materials  used  in  the  construction  of  buildings, 
particularly  in  those  of  an  expensive  character, 
in  which  a  man  invests  the  savings  of  years, 
with  the  idea  of  realizing  a  handsome  profit,  but 
fails  to  use  more  than  the  ordinary  precautions 
against  fire,  which  is,  in  fact,  his  worst  and  al¬ 
most  only  enemy  against  success ;  provided,  he 
has  chosen  a  good  location,  and  one  calculated 
to  increase  in  value.  There  is  really  no  excuse 
for  a  man  of  intelligence  becoming  the  engineer 
of  his  own  destruction,  by  making  use  of  the 
elements  of  his  undoing  in  the  construction  of 
buildings  in  which  he  has  perhaps  ventured  the 


savings  of  a  life  time.  Fire  escapes  are  good 
things,  in  case  of  fire,  but  the  ounce  of  preven- 
;  tion  that  makes  a  fire  next  to.  impossible,  pos- 
!  sesses  advantages  so  apparent  as  not  to  require 
comment.  The  first  expense  may  be  a  trifle 
I  more,  but  it  is  cheaper  in  the  long  run,  as  many 
|  have  found  by  actual  experience.  Given,  a 
|  building  constructed  of  brick  or  stone,  with 
1  New  Jersey  woven  wire  lathing,  adamant  fire- 
J  proof  plaster  on  ceiling  and  walls,  and  all  the 
interstices  between  joist,  walls  or  roof-boards 
j  filled  with  mineral  wool,  and  there  will  be  a 
combination  of  non-inflammable  materials,  al¬ 
most  impossible  to  destroy  under  any  but  the 
j  most  extraordinary  circumstances.  It  pays  to 
i  use  such  materials,  and  the  man  who  deliber¬ 
ately  neglects  to  avail  himself  of  such  protec- 
:  tion,  deserves  the  fate  which  sooner  or  later 
overtakes  him,  in  the  destruction  of  his  property 
by  fire.

MERIT  WINS! 

Now  Over  Ten  Years  On  This  Roof. 

Philadelph  ia,  February  23d  1889. 

I  had  the  roof  of  my  house,  No.  858  N.  12th  St.,  paint¬ 
ed  with  the  W.  D.  Roberts  Sr’s  Fire  and  Water-proof 
Paint  n'ne  years  ago  and  since  that  time  it  has  ni  ver  bf  en 
repainted  or  repaired:  in  fact,  is  as  good  to  day  as  when  first 
put  rn  while  the  next  to  it  has  been  repainted  several  times. 

After  this  test  of  years,  I  cheerfully  recommend  it  to 
all  who  desire  an  excellent  and  durable  paint. 

Respectfully, 

GEO.  MYERS,  2021  North  22d  St. 

A  Leaky  Roof  Made  Good  As  New. 

Philadelphia,  June  20th.  1889. 
Messrs.  Roberts,  Taylor  &  Co., 

Gents  I  have  thoroughly  tested  your  Roofing 
Paint,  and  find  it  to  be  everything  that  you  represented 
it  to  be.  I  have  used  it  on  two  houses,  Nos.  1221  and 
1223  Stephen  Street.  The  roofs  leaked  so  badly,  and 
were  examined  by  several  practical  roofers  who  pronounced 
them  past  repairs;  the  roofs  were  painted  with  your 
paint  between  two  and  three  years  ago,  and  are  now 
good,  and  free  from  leak. 

Yours  respectfully,

PAVEMENT. 


for  Side-walks  and  Floors  is  conceded  to  be  the  best  pro¬ 
duction  of  the  present  century. 

Slag-Stone  when  properly  combined  with  the  best 
grades  of  Portland  Cement  produces  an  artificial  Stone 
superior  in  appearance,  toughness,  tensile  and  crushing 
strength  to  any  combination  known  to  modern  science. 
Its  durability  is  greater  than  the  best  Flag-Stone  and 
for  that  reason  it  is  cheaper  than  brick. 

Being  a  non-absorbent  it  is  superior  for  Canneries, 
Slaughter  Houses,  Damp  Cellars,  Boiler  Houses,  Dye 
Houses  Etc. 


For  the  Cellars  of  Residences  it  expresses  the 
highest  standard  of  perfect  Sanitation  as  it  prevents  the 
escape  of  noxious  gases  from  the  underlying  soil,  and 
will  not  absorb  impurities.  It  prevents  dampness,  is 
easily  cleaned  and  renders  the  whole  house  more  com¬ 
fortable  and  healthful.

A  Kitiy  For  the  Church  Fund. 

A  novel  way  of  raising  a  fund  for  the  erection 
of  a  new  church  building  has  been  adopted  by 
a  number  of  Western  gentlemen  who  are  now 
summering  at  Avalon,  N.  J.  Of  course  the  reg¬ 
ular  evening  game  of  draw  poker  is  indispensa¬ 
ble  with  the  Westerner  wherever  he  may  locate, 
and  of  course  the  Western  gentlemen  now  at 
Avalon,  are  no  exception  to  the  rule,  conse¬ 
quently  upon  learning  that  an  effort  was  being 
made  to  raise  a  church  fund  for  the  erection  of 
a  new  church  at  that  place,  these  gentlemen, 
with  a  generosity  only  limited  by  the  size  of  the 
game,  agreed  that  the  kitty  should  be  devoted 
to  the  fund  regardless  of  the  denominational 
character  of  the  building. 

It  is  said  that  Jim  Scovel,  a  Camden  lawyer, 
has  been  made  treasurer,  and  that  already  sev¬ 
eral  hundred  dollars  have  been  obtained. 
Scovel  has  been  compelled  to  give  bonds. 


Inside  Window  Blinds. 

Many  attempts  have  been  made  to  produce 
an  inside  window  blind  that  possessed  at  least 
the  merit  of  common  sense  and  practical  utility. 
The  field  for  invention  was  sufficiently  large  to 
justify  the  appearance  of  several  methods  but  it 
seems  that  the  genius  of  invention  made  signal 
failures  except  in  the  instance  of  the  Wilier 
method,  which  for  simplicity,  beauty  and  dura¬ 
bility  has  no  equal;  in  fact  Willer’s  vertical  slid¬ 
ing  blind,  although  of  recent  introduction,  is 
now  regarded  as  the  standard,  because  it  slides 
up  and  down  the  same  as  the  sash ;  it  is  particu¬ 
larly  appreciated  by  housekeepers  because  it 
does  uot  disturb  or  injure  the  curtains;  it  can  be 
regulated  with  ease  and  possesses  the  merit  of 
imparting  a  better  finish  and  trim  to  the  entire 
room. 

The  Wilier  Manufacturing  Company.  Front 
and  Cedar  streets,  Milwaukee,  Wis,,  the  manu¬ 


facturers  of  these  blinds,  have  prepared  two 
separate  and  distinct  catalogues,  one  for  general 
distribution  containing  full  and  specific  infortna- 
tion  and  tinted  illustrations  of  their  entire  vari¬ 
ety  of  sliding  blinds.  This  book  is  intended  for 
general  distribution,  and  can  be  had  upon  ap¬ 
plication.  Catalogue  No.  9,  a  very  elaborate 
and  expensive  production,  is  intended  for  archi¬ 
tects  only,  although  it  can  be  obtained  by  out¬ 
siders  if  they  will  address  the  Wilier  Company 
and  enclose  50  cents  in  postage  stamps. 


Hydraulic  limes  and  hydraulic  cements  are 
used  in  both  engineering  and  architectural  con¬ 
struction.  The  magnesian  limestones,  when 
burned  at  a  low  heat,  furnish  a  lime  which  pos¬ 
sess  hydraulic  properties.  The  improvement  in 
limekilns  and  the  use  of  coal  instead  of  wood 
fuel  has  led  to  the  burning  of  lime  at  higher 
temperatures  than  formerly,  and  but  little  lime 
with  hydraulic  properties  is  produced.  Lime 
stones  containing  a  considerable  amount  of 
clay  are  found  in  many  places.  When  these 
are  burned  at  a  moderate  heat  and  then  ground 
in  a  mill  they  furnish  hydraulic  cement.  Im¬ 
mense  quanties  of  such  cement  are  made  near 
Rondout,  N.  Y.,  Louisville,  Ky.,  and  at  other 
places.  The  composition,  however,  is  liable 
to  variation,  and  engineers  have  sought  a 
more  uniform  and  reliable  article  by  mixing 
pure  clay  and  carbonate  of  lime  in  proper  pro¬ 
portions,  burning  them  together  at  a  moderate 
heat  and  then  grinding  them  for  the  cement. 
The  proportions  are  nearly  four  of  carbonate  of 
lime  to  one  of  clay.  These  artificial  cements 
are  made  successfully,  and  in  large  quantities, 
m  England,  France,  Germany  and  other  Euro¬ 
pean  countries.  The  English  Portland  cement, 
which  is  artificial  is  brought  iuto  the  United 
States  in  large  quantities. — Exchange. 


Recent  Decisions. 

In  Relation  To  Matters  Concerning  Real 
Estate  and  Commercial  Law. 

Decided  by  the  Supreme  Court  of  Pennsylvania. 

Banks  : — 

When  a  deposit  is  made  in  a  Bank  by  “  A.  B., 
agent,”  the  effect  of  the  word  agent  is  simply  an 
acknowledgment  that  A.  B.  holds  the  money  for 
another  party;  and  where  such '  other  party  is  not 
designated,  as  between  the  bank  and  the  depositor, 
it  belongs  to  the  latter. 

In  such  a  case  the  bank  is  liable  if  it  pays  out  the 
money  to  third  parties,  whom,  it  alleges,  were  the 
beneficial  owners  of  the  fund. 

It  is  clearly  against  public  policy  to  allow  a  bank 
that  has  received  money  from  a  depositor,  credited 
him  with  it  upon  its  books,  and  thereby  entered  into 
an  implied  contract  to  honor  his  check,  to  allege 
that  the  money  deposited  belongs  to  some  one  else. 
This  may  be  done  by  an  attaching  creditor  or  by 
the  true  owner  of  the  funds,  but  the  bank  is  estopped 
by  its  <  wn  act. 

Boundaries  : — 

While,  as  a  general  rule,  a  grant  of  land  bounded 
upon  a  navigable  river  extends  to  low  water  mark, 
subject  to  the  right  of  the  public,  for  the  purpose  of 
navigation,  yet  there  are  cases  in  which  the  inten¬ 


tion  of  the  parties  may  be  otherwise,  and  it  is  a 
cardinal  rule  in  all  cases  that  a  grant  is  to  be  con¬ 
strued  according  to  that  intention. 

Composition  with  Creditors — 

A  defendant  who  seeks  to  defeat  a  clear  legal 
liability  on  the  ground  that  plaintiff  has  signed  a 
general  composition  of  creditors,  must  prove  per¬ 
formance  of  every  condition  on  which  the  effect  of 
said  composition  is  limited.  The  fact  that  a  party 
enters  up  a  mechanics’  lien  for  materials  furnished, 
does  not  release  the  purchaser  from  personal  liability 
for  such  materials,  and  hence  the  failure  of  a  holder 
of  such  a  lien  to  sign  an  agreement  of  creditors, 
which  provides  that  it  shall  not  be  binding  unless 
all  creditors  sign,  is  fatal,  and  a  party  who  signs  the 
same  is  not  bound  thereby. 

Corporation  : — 

Under  the  general  corporation  law  of  April  29, 
1874,  non  residents  may  become  corporators. 

A  non-resident  stockholder  takes  his  shares  with 
all  the  rights  and  privileges  which  pertain  to  them 
in  the  hands  of  a  citizen,  and  he  may  vote  upon 
them,  and  where  no  other  qualification  than  owner¬ 
ship  of  stock  is  required  of  the  directors  he  may  be¬ 
come  a  director. 

Curtesy  : — 

The  Act  of  June  3,  1889,  §5,  providing  that  “a 
married  woman  may  dispose  of  her  property,  real 
and  personal,  by  last  will  and  testament  in  writing, 
signed  by  her,  or  manifested  by  her  mark  or  cross, 
made  by  her  at  the  end  thereof,  in  the  same  manner 
as  if  she  were  unmarried,”  is  intended  to  regulate 
the  execution  of  a  will  by  a  married  woman,  and 
not  to  authorize  her  to  deprive  her  husband  of  his 
rights  as  tenant  by  the  curtesy. 

Deed: 

The  use  of  the  word  “heirs  ”  is  not  under  all  cir¬ 
cumstances  absolutely  essential  in  order  to  convey 
a  title  to  real  estate  in  fee. 

A.  having  a  deed  conveying  real  estate  to  him  in 
fee  simple,  in  the  usual  form,  endorsed  thereon  the 
words,  “  I,  A.,  do  hereby  assign  and  set  over  all  my 
right,  title,  interest,  claim,  property,  and  demand 
whatsoever,  in  and  to  the  within  deed  to  B.,  for 
value  received.”  The  deed  so  endorsed  was  deliv¬ 
ered  to  B.  Held,  that  the  assignment  operated  to 
transfer  an  estate  in  fee  simple  to  B.,  and  not  a  mere 
life  estate. 

Dower  : — 

Where  a  father  seized  of  land  dies  leaving  a  widow 
and  a  son,  to  whom  the  land  descends,  upon  the 
death  of  the  son  his  fthe  son’s)  widow  will  be  enti¬ 
tled  during  the  life  of  the  father’s  widow,  to  dower 
in  two-thirds  of  the  land  only. 

Landlord  and  Tenant  : — 

Where  the  lessee  of  property  surrenders  his  lease 
to  the  landlord  prior  to  the  expiration  of  a  lease  for 
part  thereof  executed  by  him  to  a  sub-tenant,  the 
sub-tenant  becomes  a  tenant  of  the  landlord.  But 
when  the  landlord  leases  the  whole  property  to  an¬ 
other  party,  the  said  sub-lessee  does  not  become  the 
tenant  of  the  new  lessee,  and  his  goods  upon  that 
portion  of  the  premises  occupied  by  him  are  not  lia¬ 
ble  to  distraint  for  rent  due  by  such  new  lessee.

The  difficulties  to  be  encountered,  the  con¬

If  there  are  any  characteristics  of  the  year 
1890  thus  far  to  be  noted  they  are  first  of  all 
the  small  falling  off  in  two  and  three  story 
houses,  there  being  but  148  of  the  former  and 
151  of  the  latter  against  the  results  of  the  cor¬ 
responding  months  of  last  year.  The  cause  of 
this  falling  off  of  299  two  and  three  story  houses 
was,  we  believe,  entirely  due  to  the  prolonged 
bad  weather  in  March  and  the  disturbance 
caused  by  the  carpenters’  strike  just  ended,  and 
not  as  many  suppose  from  any  pre-determined 
purpose  of  builders  not  to  erect  them,  for  while 
March  of  this  year  fell  off  in  operations  714 
against  March  of  last  year,  yet  April  of  1890  ex¬ 
ceeded  April  of  1889  by  130,  and  May  by  23, 
while  June,  the  month  of  labor  disturbances, 
fell  off  95.  Another  noticeable  characteristic  of 
this  year  is  the  increase  in  the  number  of  costly 
buildings,  the  most  of  which  for  the  purpose 
of  more  specific  data  we  note  at  the  bottom  of 
our  building  table  giving  in  most  instances  their 
actual  contract  price. 

The  cost  of  church  buildings  this  year,  the 
number  (7),  being  the  same  in  both  years  is 
augmented  by  the  Church  of  the  Advocate, 
which  alone  will  cost  $400,000. 

This  year  thus  far  the  First  Ward  wins  the 
flag  for  two  story  houses,  as  the  figures  show 
848  against  736.  for  the  Twenty-eighth,  which 
was  the  leading  ward  for  the  same  months  last 
year.  The  increase  in  the  First  Ward  over  the 
same  months  last  year  being  481;  while  in  the 
Twenty-eighth  there  has  been  a  falling  off  of 

Three  story  houses,  although  showing  a  total 
falling  of  151  compared  with  1889,  yet  there  is  a 
gain  of  269  over  the  same  months  of  1888. 

The  Twenty-eighth  Ward  takes  the  lead  in 
three  story  houses  this  year,  the  figures  being 
356  against  50  for  the  Twenty-ninth,  which  was 
the  leading  ward  last  year  with  241.  It  will  be 
seen  that  the  Twenty-ninth  has  fallen  off  191 
three  story  houses  as  against  last  year. 

We  give  in  full  our  summary  for  the  first  six 
months  of  1889  in  order  that  our  readers  may 
make  comparisons. 

Four  story  buildings  have  lost  15  of  their 
number  already  when  compared  with  last  year, 
yet  this  is  one  more  than  was  erected  during 
the  whole  of  1888. 

There  is  also  a  noticeable  increase  in  both  the 
number  and  cost  of  the  alterations  and  addi¬ 
tions  this  year  compared  with  last,  the  figures 
being  940  this  year,  costing  $1,410,000  against 
816  last  year,  costing  $1 ,040,400,  but  it  must  be 
understood  that  the  increase  does  not  include 
the  $125,000  expended  on  the  Bingham  House 
nor  the  $10,000  expended  on  the  Lulu  Temple, 
both  of  which  we  have  included  in  our  miscel¬ 
laneous.  but  the  alterations  to  the  interior  of  the 
Grand  Opera  House  costing  about  $40,000,  and 
the  Philosophical  Society  $40,000,  are  included 
in  our  alterations  and  additions. 

The  year  up  to  June  30th  inclusive,  shows 
6,298  operations  represented  by  the  building 
permits  exclusive  of  alterations  and  additions, 
the  estimated  cost  being  $21,220,215,  an  excess 
of  $1,359,898  over  the  estimated  rost  of  the 
operations  of  the  same  months  of  last  year.  The 
excess  in  church  buildings  being  $270,000; 
school  buildings,  $120,000 ;  stables,  $38,000: 
foundries  and  shops,  $268,750;  brewing  and  bot¬

$38,312;  factories,  $120,000;  dye  and  dry  houses, 

$40,413;  warehouses,  $96,803;  miscellaneous, 

$2,365,000. 

During  the  six  months  there  were  8,160  con- 
ivanetrs  recorded,  representing  a  money  value 
$42,063,784  01;  the  sales  at  auction  during  the 
same  time  amounting  to  $2,314,370.33  against 
which  we  note  for  the  same  period  of  1889,  8419 
conveyances  recorded,  amounting  to  $42,374,- 
824  05,  the  auction  sales  having  been  $2,410,- 
891.82,  a  falling  <  ff  of  259  conveyances,  a  de¬ 
crease  in  money  value  ol  $311,040  04.  j  j* 

The  mortgage  encumbrance  on  the  pioperties  lions,  $99,000:  Two  Gas  Houses,  $20,000;  One  Slaughter 

amounts  to  21  per  cent.,  while  the  principal  of  Two  Green  Houses,  $10,000;  One  Laboratory,  $5, 0(X),

sive  buildings. 


We  present  a  few  opinions  of  leading  opera¬ 
tive  builders  and  others.  We  believe  the  feeling 
among  real  estate  men  to  be  one  of  conser  va 
tism,  although  there  are  a  few  of  course,  who 
still  possess  booming  proclivities.  There  is  one 
thing  certain  however,  and  that  is  the  stock  of 


small  houses  remaining  unsold  and  unlet  is 
large,  perhaps  too  large,  to  justify  a  repetition 
of  the  product  of  last  year.  There  will  be  buy¬ 
ers  enough  for  well  built  sma  1  buildings  desir¬ 
ably  located,  at  fair  prices  for  investment,  but 
it  is  foolish  to  expect  any  wild  speculation  with 
the  hope  of  selling  anything  and  everything 
that  looks  like  a  house.  The  amount  of  prop¬ 
erty  sold  during  the  past  six  months  is  suffi¬ 
ciently  large  to  satisfy  even  the  most  hopeful 
ones;  if  the  same  amount  is  sold  during  the  last 
half  of  the  year  no  fault  can  be  found  with  the 
results  of  1890.  Of  course  the  real  estate  mar¬ 
ket  is  sluggish,  as  it  always  is  during  the  sum¬ 
mer  months,  but  we  believe  there  will  be  an 
active  fall  trade.  The  result  of  the  census  will, 
no  doubt,  have  a  discouraging  influence  on 
building,  but  the  influence  will  certainly  be  a 
healthy  one,  as  it  will  deter  lawyers  and  shoe¬ 
makers  from  building  on  their  own  account  and 
influence  them  to  buy  what  houses  they  want 
at  fair  profits  from  legitimate  builders. 

Jno.  J,  Cassiday,  builder:  1  am  selling  all  the 
houses  I  can  build,  and  upon  good  terms.  The 
demand  at  times  has  been  greater  than  I  could 
supply,  but  on  the  whole  I  regard  the  prospects 
as  cheering,  as  the  past  has  been  prosperous. 
We  were  not  retarded  much  by  the  recent  strike. 
I  shall  continue  mv  operations  late  into  the 
winter. 

William  Gillingham,  President  of  Building  In¬ 
spector’  Board,  says:  We  have  issued  several 
hundred  more  permits  during  the  first  six 
months  of  1890,  than  we  did  that  of  1889.  I 
think  the  fact  that  houses  are  readily  filled 
is  because  people  generally  like  the  modern 
conveniences  introduced  now-a-days,  and  there¬ 
fore  many  old  properties  are  vacant  and  to  let. 
On  the  whole,  the  operations  are  up  to  our  ex¬ 
pectations,  and  the  outlook  most  encouraging 
indeed; 


Wm.  R.  Dougherty,  contractor,  carpenter  and 
builder,  1604  Sansom  street,  says:  I  am  satisfied 
that  the  general  operations  are  a  shade  better 
than  they  were  last  year  this  time  and  on  a  good 
solid  basis  financially.  They  may  be  overdone 
in  two  and  three  story  houses  if  great  caution  is 
not  exercised.  A  tendency  is  noticeable  to  want 
new  houses  and  leave  the  older  ones  on  the 
hands  of  agents  and  owners. 

Stacy  Reeves,  President  Builders’  Exchange 
and  conrractor,  says:  While  there  may  not  have 
been  as  great  a  volume  of  work  done  in  1890, 
yet  I  think  profits  are  fair  and  even  good;  of 
course  competition  is  very  great,  but  that  should 
be  courted  and  expected  in  the  business  world ; 
and  while  the  late  strike  may  have  affected  gen¬ 
eral  operations,  I  think  we  will  have  a  good 
summer  and  fall  season. 

J.  S.  Albright,  brickmaker,  Fifth  street  and 
Rising  Sun  Lane,  says:  My  sales  have  been  good, 
but  prices  are  about  5  per  cent,  less  than  in 
1889;  yet  we  have  put  out  4,000,000  up  to  date, 
and  expect  to  make  as  many  more  this  season. 
I  regard  business  as  first  class — bills  are  paid 
when  due — and  no  one  can  ask  more. 

Another  large  brick  manufactory  reports  sales 
as  better  than  they  had  anticipated.  The  fact  is 
that  1889  opened  better  for  builders  to  com¬ 
mence  their  foundations  than  that  of  1890,  as 
the  wet  weather  retarded  movement  in  this 
year;  but  we  find  the  demand  heavy  for  moulded 
and  press  brick,  and  a  growing  disposition  to 
the  ornamentation  of  house  fronts,  which  speaks 
well  for  the  culture  of  the  people  in  building 
nice  houses.  We  are  shipping  great  quantities 
by  rail  to  distant  parts,  and  there  seems  to  be  a 
growing  disposition  toward  conservatism  in  the 
operations,  at  least  more  this  than  last  year, 
and  all  seem  to  be  on  a  good  basis,  and  as  long 
as  houses  are  put  up  good  and  ornamental  on 
exterior  we  think  they  will  sell.

THE  RECORD  AND  GUIDE. 


Isaac  Pursell,  architect,  119  South  Fourth 
street,  Philadelphia,  says:  He  has  had  a  busy 
year,  and  thinks  the  outlook  for  the  future  very 
bright,  as  people  [are  disposed  to  build  larger 
and  better  structures. 

Moses  King  &  Ferris,  architects  and  engineers, 
226  Walnut  street,  Philadelphia,  say:  They  are 
doing  twice  the  amount  of  work  they  did  last 
year,  and  the  better  class  of  wlrk  is  bolding  its 
own,  and  consider  the  future  outlook  good. 

Thomas  Marshall,  contractor  and  builder,  411 
Locust  street:  I  think  the  late  strike  retarded  a 
little  the  operations  of  this  year.  Some  of  my 
customers  have  held  back  on  that  account,  but 
I  regard  the  operations  as  a  whole  on  a  good 
basis. 

Hazelhurst  &.  Hucke I,  architects,  410  Walnut 
street,  Philadelphia,  say:  We  have  not  done  as 
much  work  for  the  city  direct  as  we  have  for 
outside.  Still  we  have  been  very  busy,  and  we 
think  the  outlook  exceedingly  good  for  fall 
trade.  We  have  no  complaint  to  make,  we 
have  our  share. 

Warner  H.  Jenkins,  civil  engineer  and  Mana¬ 
ger  of  Portland  Paving  Company,  207  Walnut 
street,  says:  We  have  done  25  per  cent,  more 
work  than  last  year,  and  our  basis  has  been 
cash.  We  consider  all  operations  in  a  good  con¬ 
dition  because  of  the  mode  of  selling  to  buyers 
and  ithe  security  to  the  seller.  On  the  whole 
the  outlook  is  encouraging. 

Mr.  Wm.  Harkness,  Jr.,  Third  and  Levant 
streets,  says:  I  believe  my  business  has  been  as 
good  this  year  as  last,  and  that  there  is  a  dispo¬ 
sition  to  increase  and  better  the  comforts  of  the 
modern  houses,  and  that  is  one  of  the  leading 
causes  of  the  houses  being  so  rapidly  sold  when 
built.  On  the  whole  I  think  building  opera¬ 
tions  as  in  a  very  fair  condition  and  the  future 
exceedingly  bright. 

Thos.  H.  Parks,  real  estate  broker,  agent  and 
operative  builder,  Eighteenth  and  Diamond 
streets,  says  :  The  outlook  for  the  real  estate 
business  is  very  good,  while  trade  at  this  season 
of  the  year  is  always  sluggish,  yet  the  demand 
for  first-class,  w'ell-built  houses  continues  good, 
those  mostly  in  demand  being  medium  size, 
say  ten  to  thirteen  rooms.  Judging  from  the 
numerous  enquiries  at  present,  there  will  cer¬ 
tainly  be  a  very  brisk  fall  trade. 

Robert  Anderson,  real  estate,  Forty-fourth  and 
Lancaster  avenue,  reports  that  for  the  past  six 
months  the  demand  and  sales  of  new  two  and 
three-story  dwellings  has  been  good  and  the 
sales  for  cash  unprecedented.  While  the  de¬ 
mand  is  yet  fair,  he  is  of  the  opinion  that  there 
are  plenty  of  new  dwellings  for  the  coming 
year,  as  building  operations  have  been  exten¬ 
sive  in  West  Philadelphia,  for  the  past  six 
months. 

Louis  T.  Brooke,  real  estate  broker,  18  South 
Broad  street  thinks  that  building  has  been  over¬ 
done,  and  that  this  fact  is  apparent  from  the 
present  difficulty  of  renting  small  houses.  He 
says  that  there  is  a  general  feeling  that  the 
stock  of  small  houses  is  now  greater  than  the 
demand  for  them.  He  predicts  dull  times  ahead 
in  the  real  estate  business.  The  census  returns 
he  regards  as  very  disappointing,  and  it  will 
certainly  have  a  bad  effect  upon  building. 

Theophilus  P.  Chandler,  Jr.,  architect,  Brown’s 
Building,  says:  I  believe  we  are  growing  very 
much  in  size  as  a  city  and  in  wealth.  The 
growth  of  the  suburban  districts  is  phenomenal. 
There  is  a  tendency  to  build  good  houses  and 
well  equipped  ones,  and  what  we  need  to  make 
us  truly  great  in  Philadelphia,  is  better  streets, 
more  boulevards  and  drives,  so  as  to  make  our 
city  comfortable  and  inviting  to  those  who  visit 
us.  I  am  heartily  in  favor  of  such  a  move.  We 
have  had  a  busy  year  thus  far,  and  the  future 
looks  bright  financially  and  otherwise. 

F.  Harris  &  Co.,  bricklayers  and  general  con¬ 
tractors,  1611  Filbert  street,  say:  That  they  do 
not  think  as  much  large  work  has  been  done 
this  year  as  last,  but  the  dwelling  house  opera¬ 
tions  have  been  greater.  Had  it  not  been  for 
the  strike  we  think  more  big  operations  would 


have  been  begun  and  completed.  We  have  done 
more  work  the  first  six  months  of  this  year  than 
during  the  corresponding  time  of  last  year,  and 
we  believe  the  financial  situation  good  at  all 
points. 

Wm,  C.  Merritt  (Thornton  &  Merritt),  practi¬ 
cal  builders,  Fortieth  and  Poplar  streets,  says: 
That  in  view  of  the  disappointing  results  of  the 
census  a  halt  should  be  called  in  building  oper¬ 
ations  unless  we  are  assured  of  more  rapid 
transit.  By  rapid  transit,  Mr.  Merritt  does  not 
mean  steam  roads  that  carry  people  into  adjoin¬ 
ing  counties,  but  elevated  or  underground  roads, 
or  even  a  belt  road  with  cross  sections  that 
would  carry  people  by  and  through  ground  con¬ 
tiguous  to  the  already  built  up  portion  ol  Phila¬ 
delphia.  It  seems  to  me  that  at  the  present 
rate  of  house  building  w  e  will  have  an  overstock 
in  a  short  time  unless  people  can  be  conveyed 
to  the  outskirts  more  speedily. 

David  E.  Dallam,  real  estate  broker,  514  Wal¬ 
nut  street,  says  that  the  past  six  months  of  1890 
have  been  exceedingly  prosperous  and  contrary 
to  his  expectations,  the  demand  for  real  estate 
except  high  fancied  properties  still  continues. 
He  thinks  the  height  has  been  reached  for  the 
prices  for  central  properties,  as  merchants  do¬ 
ing  a  legitimate  business  cannot  pay  such  rents, 
as  a  fair  return  from  Chestnut  street  properties, 
as  the  present  selling  prices  would  demand. 
At  the  beginning  of  the  year  there  was  very 
little  or  no  demand  for  sites  for  industrial  pur¬ 
poses,  but  recently  a  demand  for  these  sites  has 
arisen,  but  he  can  see  no  reason  for  it.  Manu¬ 
facturers  are  universally  complaining  of  un¬ 
profitable  business,  while  at  the  same  time  they 
are  buying  property  to  increase  their  plants  and 
production.  He  thinks  the  census  returns  will 
largely  curtail'  the  erection  of  small  houses, 
for  if  the  report  is  correct  the  city  has  not  held 
its  own  on  its  natural  increase,  whereas  build¬ 
ing  represents  a  provision  for  a  year  by  increase 
of  50,000  population. 

Geo.  W.  Hancock,  President  of  the  Citizens’ 
Trust  and  Tax  Indemnity  Company,  is  of  the 
opinion  that  the  building  boom  has  arrived  at  a 
stage  where  a  halt  should  be  called,  that  it  has 
reached  a  stage  wherein  the  supply  is  fully  up 
to  the  demund;  for  while  we  no  doubt  will  be 
able  to  find  customers  for  all  the  houses  that 
have  been  built,  yet  any  great  increase  must, 
through  the  hands  of  buyers  and  occupants,  soon 
become  dead  stock  ;  this  is  evident  from  the 
great  number  of  old  houses  remaining  unlet  and 
unsold.  One  of  the  most  unhealthy  conditions 
of  the  market  is  the  way  many  of  the  houses 
are  being  sold,  enough  money  not  being  re¬ 
quired  to  make  such  sales  genuine.  Any  dis¬ 
turbance  in  the  money  or  labor  market  must 
produce  disastrous  results  to  owners  who  have 
sold  houses  on  this  unusually  easy  payment 
basis,  some  of  them  hardly  receiving  the  first 
year  an  amount  equal  to  a  fair  rental. 

Jas.  H.  Stevenson  &  Son,  operative  builders, 
Twenty-ninth  and  Diamond  streets,  say  that  they 
are  not  scared  by  the  census  report,  and  that  they 
believe  there  are  really  many  more  people  be¬ 
longing  to  Philadelphia  than  have  been  re¬ 
ported.  At  any  rate  there  are  people  enough 
to  occupy  all  the  houses  now  being  built.  There 
are  not  over  200,000  buildings  in  Philadelphia, 
which  |on  a  basis  of  five  to  a  house,  are  not 
enough  to  properly  house  even  the  population 
given  us  by  the  census  report.  Steam  railway 
rapid  transit,  has  taken  thousands  to  the  suburbs 
and  adjacent  counties,  and  will  continue  to  do 
so,  until  our  city  fathers  awaken  from  their  Rip 
Van  Winkle  sleep  and  give  us  several  well 
equipped  roads  to  carry  tile  people  from  their 
business  places  to  their  homes.  We  should  have 
the  Belt  Line.  The  Pennsylvania  Railroad  Co. 
should  be  made  to  do  justice  to  ourcity.  Taxes 
should  be  levied  to  an  amount  sufficient  to  give 
us  good  sewers,  gas  and  water.  Until  City 
Councils  learn  to  appreciate  the  necessities  of 
the  people,  builders  on  the  outskirts  had  better 
go  slow,  while  those  who  are  so  fortunate  as  to 
own  land  on  the  line  of  good  passenger  and 
steam  railways]  may' go  on  building  for  years. 


This  firm  built  over  100  buildings  during  the 
last  two  years,  nearly  all  having  been  sold  for  in¬ 
vestment.  It  has  now  140  in  course  of  erection, 
many  of  which  have  been  sold.  The  secret  of 
this  great  success  of  their  operations  is  location 
and  accessibility.

Fireproof  Whitewash. 

It  is  found  that  a  most  effective  composition 
for  fireproofing  exterior  surfaces  may  be  formed 
by  slaking  a  sufficient  quantity  of  freshly- 
burned  lime  of  the  best  grade,  and  when  the 
slacking  is  complete  there  is  added  such  an 
amount  of  skim-milk,  or  water  in  its  absence, 
as  will  make  the  liquid  of  the  consistency  of 
cream.  To  every  ten  gallons  of  this  liquid  are 
added  separately,  and  in  powder,  stirring  con¬ 
stantly,  the  following  ingredients  in  the  order 
named  :  two  pounds  of  alum,  twenty-four 
ounces  of  sub-carbonate  of  Fotassium  or  com¬ 
mercial  potash  and  one  pound  of  common  salt. 
If  white  paint  is  desin  d  a  further  addition  is 
made  to  the  liquid,  though  the  whitei  ess  is 
found  to  be  improved  by  a  few  ounces  of  plaster- 
of-Paris.  Lamp  black  has  the  effect  of  giving 
a  number  of  shades  from  slate  color  to  black. 
Whatever  tint  is  used  it  is  incorporated  at  this 
stage,  and  the  whole,  after  being  strained 
through  a  sieve,  is  run  through  a  paint  mill. 
When  ready  to  apply,  the  paint  is  heated 
nearly  to  the  boiling  point  of  water,  aiid  is  put 
on  in  its  hot  condition.  It  is  found  that  the  ad¬ 
dition  of  a  quantity  of  fine  white  sand  to  this 
composition  renders  it  a  valuable  covering  for 
roofs  and  crumbling  brick  walls,  which  it  serves 
to  protect.

MERIT  WINS! 

Now  Over  Ten  Years  On  This  Roof. 

Philadelphia,  February  23d  1889. 

I  had  the  roof  of  my  house,  No.  858  N.  12th  St.,  paint¬ 
ed  with  the  W.  D.  Roberts  Sr’s  Fire  and  Water-proof 
Paint  n  ne  years  ago  and  since  that  time  it  has  never  been 
lepain  ed  or  repaired:  in  fact,  is  as  good  to-d*y  as  when  first 

put  n  while  the  nexMo  i<  has  been  repainted  several  times 

After  this  test  of  years,  I  cheerfully  recommend  it  to 
all  who  desire  an  excellent  and  durable  paint. 
Respectfully,

A  Leaky  Roof  Made  Good  As  New. 

Philadelphia,  June  20th.  1889. 
Messrs.  Roberts,  Taylor  &  Co., 

Gents  : — I  have  thoroughly  tested  your  Roofing 
Paint,  and  find  it  to  be  everything  that  you  represented 
it  to  be.  I  have  used  it  on  two  houses,  Nos.  1221  and 
1223  Stephen  Street.  The  roofs  leaked  so  badly,  and 
were  xamined  by  several  practical  roofers  who  pronounced 
them  past  tepai  s;  the  roofs  were  painted  with  your 
paint  between  two  and  three  years  ago,  and  are  now 
good  and  free  from  leak.

The  Penn  is  purely  Mutual.  Insurance  is  furnished  at  exact  cost.  Its 
factors — mortality,  interest  and  expense — have  all  been  highly  favorable  in 
this  company.  All  policies  are  absolutely  Non-Forfeitable  for  reserve 
value,  the  latter  being  applied  to  “  Extension  ”  or  to  “  Paid  up  ”  as  may  be 
desired.  Its  policies  are  free  from  technicalities  and  beccme  Incontestable 
for  any  cause  after  Two  years.

Are  You  Getting  What  You  Pay  For  ? 

The  Largest  and  Most  Secure  Safe  Deposit  Vaults 
are  those  of  the 

GUARANTEE 

Trust  and  Safe  Oeposit  Company. 

316,  318  &  320  Chestnut  Street, 

These  vaults  are  entirely  unconnected  with  the  walls  of  thefiie  proof 
building  containing  them,  and  in  their  construction  1,700  tons  of 
granite  and  400,000  pounds  of  iron  and  steel  were  used,  and  no  ex¬ 
pense  has  been  spared  to  secure  every  device  that  can  add  to  the  safety 
of  the  valubles  deposited  in  them.  They  are  three  stories  in  height, 
and  the  London  Tunes  described  them  some  years  since  as  being  the 
“  Largest  Safe  Deposit  Vaults  in  the  World.” 

The  fire-proof  building  containing  these  vaults  is  entirely  separate 
from  other  buildings,  being  surrounded  on  all  sides  by  streets  or  wide 
cpen  space,  and  guarded  day  and  night  by  an  ample  force  of  inside 
and  outside  watchmen. 

If  you  have  use  for  a  safe  in  which  to  place  valuable  papers  or  se¬ 
curities  it  should  be  a  vault  that  is 

1st.— Secure  from  theft. 

2d. — Absolutely  fire-proof. 

3d  — In  a  properly  guarded  fire-proof  building. 

No  building  and  no  Safe  Deposit  Vaults  in  Philadelphia  so  com¬ 
pletely  fulfill  all  of  these  conditions  as  do  the  Fire-Proof  Building  and 
Safe  Deposit  Vaults  of  the 

Guarantee  Trust  and  Safe  Deposit  Company, 

316,  318  and  320  Chestnut  Street. 

Safes  in  these  vaults  can  be  rented  at  as  low  rates  as  are  charged 
elsewhere  for  inferior  accommodations. 

Independently  of  expense,  however,  to  those  who  entrust  valuable 
papers  and  securities  to  the  custody  of  Safe  Deposit  Companies  the 
question 

Am  I  Getting  The  Security  I  Pay  For? 

is  extremely  pertinent.

EHRET’S 

Slag -Stone  Composition 

EOOFIl@f 

has  stood  the  severest  tests  and  in  no  case  has  it 
ever  failed. 

It  is  Fire  Proof,  as  well  as  Damp  and  Moisture 
proof.  It  never  expands  or  contracts  ;  it  is  not  af¬ 
fected  by  Steam,  Acids,  Gasses,  Vapors  or  other 
injurious  influences,  that  would  render  a  metal  roof 
perfectly  useless  in  a  lew  weeks.  It  is  air-tight  and 
is  not  affected  by  atmospheric  influences  of  any 
kind  ;  it  is  durable  and  reliable  in  winter  and  sum¬ 
mer,  and  positively  requires  no  care  or  attention 
whatever.  It  will  out-last  the  BUILDING  and  for 
Factories,  Chemical  Works,  Boiler  and  Engine- 
houses,  Depots,  Factories,  Mills  and  Warehouses, 
it  is  without  an  equal.  It  costs  less  than  tin  or 
slate  requires  no  painting,  can  be  walked  on  with¬ 
out  injury  and  must  not  be  considered  in  the  same 
light  and  prejudice  usually  bestowed  upon  what  are 
known  as  Tar  Roofs. 

BEWARE  OF  IMITATIONS,  for  the  durability  of 
our  Roofing  is  not  only  owing  to  our  great  care  in 
laying  on  a  roof  ;  but  also  in  the  scientific  prepara¬ 
tion  of  the  Material  we  use.  Circulars  and  testimo¬ 
nials  sent  upon  application.

“Malice  Dies  By  Its  Own  Hand.” 

^  ♦  ♦  ♦  ♦  ,♦  .♦  ,♦  ;C 

SHE  injunction  obtained  against  JOHN  J.  CAS5IUY,  the  Builder  of  the 
First  Ward,  for  an  alleged  malconstiuction  of  certain  walls  has  been  dis¬ 
solved  after  due  investigation,  and  some  modification  made.  It  has  been 
found  that  nothing  but  the  best  of  building  material  has  been  used,  such  as  Bar 
Sand,  Cedar  Hollow  Lime,  and  Trenton  and  Norristown  Red  Stone.  These  are 
well-known  materials  to  all  authorities  on  the  subject  of  building,  and  therefore 
need  no  further  vindication  than  that  they  are  used  extensively  upon  public  and 
private  operations  at  large  by  all  well-known  builders,  and  endorsed  by  archi¬ 
tects,  engineers  and  others. 

The  information  was  concocted  and  given  by  a  party  known  under  the  nom- 
de-plume  of  James  Littleman,  who  is  neither  a  resident  nor  a  tax-payer  of  the  City 
of  Philadelphia,  but  is  the  dupe  of  some  malicious  person  or  persons  who  con¬ 
spired  against  the  said  John  J.  Cassidy  to  have  an  injunction  obtained. 

Mr.  CASSIDY  has  searched  the  entire  City  and  County  of  Philadelphia  for  the 
aforesaid  James  Littleman,  but  he  has  failed  to  materialize. 

Mr.  CASSIDY  hereby  denies  the  entire  statement  in  toto,  from  beginning  to 
end,  and  wishes  to  inform  the  public  that  he  has  been  the  victim  of  some  evil  de¬ 
signing  persons  during  his  absence  from  the  city. 

Mr.  CASSIDY’S  reputation  is  too  well  known  throughout  Philadelphia  to  be 
libeled  in  this  manner.  He  has  erected  $1,500,000  worth  of  real  estate,  represent¬ 
ing  an  aggregate  of  1000  houses,  and  has  sold  them  all,  up  to  date,  thus  enrich¬ 
ing  the  City,  and  furnishing  houses  for  hundreds  of  people,  who  purchased  them 
for  investment  and  purpose  of  dwelling  in  them.  He  furthermore  proposes  to 
erect  as  many  more  houses  in  the  next  year,  and  has  made  his  arrangements  ac¬ 
cordingly. 

He  proposes  to  pursue  his  policy  of  business,  which  has  accomplished  so 
much  to  benefit  the  Southeastern  section  of  the  City,  and  feels  a  sense  of  justifica¬ 
tion  for  so  doing  in  the  confidence  he  has  had  thus  far  reposed  in  his  good  judg¬ 
ment  and  honesty  of  purpose.  Neither  the  malice  of  clandestine  enemies  nor 
petty  misrepresentation  shall  stand  as  a  barrier  to  the  march  of  progress  and  im¬ 
provement  in  which  he  is  so  largely  and  deeply  interested

PHILADELPHIA,  WED’Y.  JULY  16,  1890. 


For  the  convenience  of  members  of  the 
Master  Builders’  Exchange,  we  have  secured 
Box  No.  199  at  that  place,  where  any  communi¬ 
cations  for  publication  may  be  left. 


The  Equitable  Trust  Company,  which  opened 
its  doors  for  the  transaction  of  business  on 
January  8th,  1890,  has  just  made  public  its  semi¬ 
annual  statement  for  the  six  months  ending 
June  30th.  The  showing  is  a  good  one  and  one 
calculated  to  inspire  confidence  in  the  business 
management  of  the  gentleman  having  in  charge 
the  work  of  the  company.  There  is  a  net  pro¬ 
fit  of  $8,622.38  for  the  short  time  in  which  the 
company  has  been  in  business,  and  the  pros¬ 
pects  are  for  a  largely  increased  volume  of  busi¬ 
ness  in  the  future.  The  office  is  at  624  Chestnut 
street. 


The  “Recollections  of  General  Grant”  in 
pamphlet  form  has  been  issued  by  Mr.  George 
W.  Childs,  of  the  Ledger.  They  are  dedicated 
to  Mrs.  Grant,  and  besides  containing  many 
personal  recollections  of  General  Grant  hitherto 
unpublished,  there  is  an  interesting  account  of 
his  presentation  of  the  portraits  of  Grant, 
Sheridan  and  Sherman,  to  West  Point  Military 
Academy.  Coming  from  such  a  close  personal 
friend  and  admirer  as  Mr.  Childs,  these  recollec¬ 
tions  have  a  distinct  value  of  their  own,  which 
makes  them  unusually  interesting.

for  Side- walks  and  Floors  is  conceded  to  be  the  best  pro¬ 
duction  of  the  present  century. 

Slag-Stone  when  properly  combined  with  the  best 
grades  of  Portland  Cement  produces  an  artificial  Stone 
superior  in  appearance,  toughness,  tensile  and  crushing 
strength  to  any  combination  known  to  modern  science. 
Its  durability  is  greater  than  the  best  Flag-Stone  and 
for  that  reason  it  is  cheaper  than  brick. 

Being  a  non-absorbent  it  is  superior  for  Canneries, 
Slaughter  Houses,  Damp  Cellars,  Boiler  Houses,  Dye 
Houses  Etc. 

For  the  Cellars  of  Residences  it  expresses  the 
highest  standard  of  perfect  Sanitation  as  it  prevents  the 
escape  of  noxious  gases  from  the  underlying  soil,  and 
will  not  absorb  impurities.  It  prevents  dampness,  is 
easily  cleaned  and  renders  the  whole  house  more  com¬ 
fortable  and  healthful.

MERIT  WINS! 


Now  Over  Ten  Years  On  This  Roof. 

Philadelphia,  February  23d  1889. 

I  had  the  roof  of  my  house,  No.  858  N.  12th  St.,  paint¬ 
ed  with  the  W.  D.  Roberts  Sr’s  Fire  and  Water-proof 
Paint  nine  years  ago  and  since  that  time  it  has  never  been 
repainted  or  repaired:  in  fact,  is  as  good  to-day  as  when  first 
put  on  while  the  next  to  it  has  been  repainted  several  times. 

After  this  test  of  years,  I  cheerfully  recommend  it  to 
all  who  desire  an  excellent  and  durable  paint. 

Respectfully,

Messrs.  Roberts,  Taylor  &  Co., 

Gents:— I  have  thoroughly  tested  your  Roofing 
Paint,  and  find  it  to  be  everything  that  ypu  represented 
it  to  be.  I  have  used  it  on  two  houses,  INTos.  1221  and 
1223  Stephen  Street.  The  roofs  leaked  so  badly,  and 
were  examined  by  several  practical  roofers  who  pronounced 
them  past  repairs;  the  roofs  were  painted  with  your 
paint  between  two  and  three  years  ago,  and  are  now 
good  and  free  from  leak.

A  CHANCE  to  put  a  practical  man  into  a  place, 
which  by  nature  and  education  he  is  fitted  to 
occupy,  will  soon  be  offered  in  the  candidacy  of 
Warner  H.  Jenkins  for  a  building  inspector. 
Mr.  Jenkins  is  a  graduate  of  the  University  of 
Pennsylvania,  an  hydraulic  engineer  of  recog¬ 
nized  ability,  and  the  inventor  and  patentee  of 
the  well  and  favorably  known  metalithic  pave¬ 
ment.  As  a  member  of  the  Master  Builders’ 
Exchange,  the  manager  of  the  Portland  Pav¬ 
ing  Company,  and  Consulting  Engineer  to  manv 
large  paving  companies,  Mr.  Jenkins  has  had 
unusual  opportunities  to  familiarize  himself  with 
all  the  details  appertaining  to  building  in  its 
various  branches.  He  is  therefore  fully  equip¬ 
ped  for  the  position  and  will  make  an  invaluable 
member  of  the  Board  of  Building  Inspectors.

Rational  Architecture. 

The  very  art  element  of  architecture  has  been 
the  cause  of  ifs  degradation.  From  the  most 
usesul  of  arts,  it  has  become  mostly  ornamental. 
From  meaning  and  expressing  the  utility  of  an 
edifice,  it  has  come  to  refer  to  its  appearance 
only.  People  have  forgotten  that  it  arose  from 
the  necessity  of  man  for  shelter,  and  view  it  as  a 
product  of  the  study  or  of  the  studio,  in  which 
beauty  and  aesthetic  effects  are  the  only  ends 
sought,  while  utility,  convenience,  expression 
of  intention,  have  all  become  secondary  con¬ 
siderations.  Nothing  could  be  more  erroneous, 
nothing  more  fatal  to  the  production  of  sound 
architecture. 

Architecture  is  not  the  product  of  the  imagi¬ 
nation,  bnt  the  result  of  experience  and  fore¬ 
sight.  The  painter  in  his  studio,  or  the  sculp¬ 
tor  in  his,  has  nothing  to  indicate  his  thoughts 


or  force  them  into  certain  channels.  His  fancy 
is  free,  and  he  allows  it  to  carry  him  where  it 
will.  The  architect,  on  the  other  hand,  is 
limited  by  innumerable  requirements  and  diffi¬ 
culties,  all  of  which  are  real  and  physical,  and 
all  of  which  must  be  overcome  before  his  work 
can  be  a  success.  His  creations  are  not  intend¬ 
ed  for  the  decoration  of  a  gallery  or  to  be  pre¬ 
served  under  glass,  but  they  must  stand  the 
test  of  time  and  climate,  must  bear  a  relation  to 
the  m  uners  and  customs  of  the  day —Popular 
Science  Monthly. 


The  railway  mileage  of  the  world  at  the  be¬ 
ginning  of  1889,  according  to  the  best  authori¬ 
ties  aggregated  a  little  over  357,000  miles, 
divided  among  the  continents  as  follows  :  Eu¬ 
rope  133,900,  America  190,000,  Asia  17,800 
Africa  5,200,  Australia  10,500.  Thus  new  Ame¬ 
rica  has  already  much  more  than  half  of  the 
entire  railway  mileage  of  the  globe  and  is  yearly 
gaining  with  great  rapidity  upon  the  older  con¬ 
tinents  and  nations.  The  United  States  have 
now  about  160,000,  or  nearly  45  per  cent,  of 
the  grand  total,  and  this  country  is  every  year 
building  more  than  the  entire  railway  mileage 
of  many  of  the  European  Nations — Railway 
Age.

Mechanic’s  Lien  : — 

Under  the  Mechanic’s  Lien  Law  of  1836, 
June  16th,  (P.  L.  696),  it  is  the  duty  of  any  in¬ 
terested  person  who  is  dissatisfied  with  the 
description  of  the  premises  in  the  lien  to  apply 
to  the  Court,  and  have  the  curtilage  fixed,  if  he 
thinks  the  claim  covers  more  ground  than  is 
useful  or  necessary  for  the  proper  enjoyment  of 
the  building.  The  Mechanic’s  Lien  Docket  is 
notice  to  all  parties  of  the  description,  and 
where  no  application  is  made  to  have  the  cur¬ 
tilage  determined,  a  party  cannot,  after  a  sale 
upon  the  mechanic’s  lien,  dispute  it.  A  pur¬ 
chaser  of  the  property  at  such  sale  is  protected 
by  the  judgment  on  the"  mechanic’s  lieu  as  to 
the  curtilage. 

Partnership  : — 

A  judgment  confessed  by  one  partner  in  the 
firm-name,  even  for  a  partnership  debt,  is  void 
against  the  non-assenting  partners,  and  on  mo¬ 
tion  will  be  struck  off  by  the  Court. 

The  judgment  is,  however,  good  against  the 
partner  professing  it :  and  the  partnership  goods 
may  be  sold  uijder  an  execution  on  such  judg¬ 
ment  for  a  firm  debt. 

Where  a  partner  sells  his  interest  in  the  firm 
to  his  co-partner  and  retires  from  the  business, 
a  confession  of  judgment  by  him  afterwards  in 
the  firm-name  is  not  only  without  authority 
but  in  fraud  of  his  co-partner’s  rights. 


Vendor  and  Vendee  : — 

A  party  having  become  embarassed  in  busi¬ 
ness  sold  certain  properties  to  his  brother,  it 
being  understood  that  the  purchase  money 
was  not  to  be  paid  to  the  vendor,  but  was 
to  remain  in  the  hands  of  the  vendee,  and 
to  be  used  by  him  for  the  purpose  of  paying  the 
venders  debts. 

Held,  that  the  vendee  was  liable  to  account 
as  a  trustee  for  all  the  funds  that  came  into  or 
remained  in  his  hands,  under  the  above  arrange¬ 
ment.

Public  Schools,  noted  in  our  last  issue  in  full,

is  at  present  appropriated  for  this  work.  At  all

rangements,  or  allow  the  schools  named  and 
condemned  by  the  Health  officers,  to  remain

MERIT  WINS! 

Now  Over  Ten  Years  On  This  Roof. 

_  ,  ,  „  „  Philadelphia,  February  23d  1889. 

I  had  the  roof  of  my  house,  No.  858  N.  12th  St.,  paint¬ 
ed  with  the  W .  D.  Roberts  Sr’s  Fire  and  Water-proof 
Paint  nine  years  ago  and  since  that  time  it  has  never  been 
repainted  or  repaired:  in  fact,  is  as  good  to  day  as  when  first 
put  on  while  the  next  to  it  has  been  repainted  several  times. 

After  this  test  of  years,  I  cheerfully  recommend  it  to 
all  who  desire  an  excellent  and  durable  paint. 
Respectfully,

proof.  It  never  expands  or  contracts  ;  it  is  not  af¬ 
fected  by  Steam,  Acids,  Gasses,  Vapors  or  other 
injurious  influences,  that  would  render  a  metal  roof 
perfectly  useless  in  a  lew  weeks.  It  is  air-tight  and 
is  not  affected  by  atmospheric  influences  of  any 
kind  ;  it  is  durable  and  reliable  in  winter  and  sum¬ 
mer,  and  positively  requires  no  care  or  attention 
whatever.  It  will  out-last  the  BUILDING  and  for 
Factories,  Chemical  Works,  Boiler  and  Engine- 
houses,  Depots,  Factories,  Mills  and  Warehouses, 
it  is  without  an  equal.  It  costs  less  than  tin  or 
slate  requires  no  painting,  can  be  walked  on  with¬ 
out  injury  and  must  not  be  considered  in  the  same 
light  and  prejudice  usually  bestowed  upon  what  are 
known  as  Tat  Roofs. 

BEWARE  OF  IMITATIONS,  for  the  durability  of 
our  Roofing  is  not  only  owing  to  our  great  care  in 
laving  on  a  roof  ;  but  also  in  the  scientific  prepara¬ 
tion  of  the  Material  we  use.  Circulars  and  testimo¬

REPORT  OF  EASTERN  DELEGATES 

WHO  ATTENDED  ANNUAL  MEETING  OF 

United  States  Savings,  Loan  and  Building  Company, 

AT  ST.  PAUL,  MINN.,  JUNE  12TH,  1890. 

TO  THE  STOCKHOLDERS :  Philadelphia ,  Pa.,  July  10th,  1890. 

We,  the  undersigned  Delegates,  representing  the  Eastern  Stockholders  of  the  above-named  Company,  at  its  Annual  Meeting,  held  in  St.  Paul,  Minn.,  June  12th,  1890,  respectfully  report : 

That  we  arrived  at  St.  Paul  on  the  10th  day  of  June,  1890,  and  were  met  at  the  “Hotel  Ryan”  by  the  Officers  and  Directors  of  the 
Company,  and  were  cordially  welcomed  and  offered  every  facility  for  the  purpose  of  making  all  examination  into  the  affairs  of  the  Company. 

f  at*  iui“e5jiat<vly  lield  a  meeting  of  the  delegates,  of  which  Geo.  W.  Hancock,  of  Philadelphia,  was  chosen  Chairman,  and  M.  K.  Watkins 
ot  Mt.  Carmel,  Pa  ,  Secretary.  It  was  the  decision  of  the  meeting  that  we  could  expedite  our  business  and  make  a  more  thorough  investigation 
by  dividing  ourselves  into  four  Committees,  which  was  done,  one  on  Securities,  one  on  Treasurer’s  Accounts,  one  on  Home  Office  and  one 
on  tne  personnel  of  the  Officers.  A  thorough  and  searching  investigation  was  made  by  each  Committee. 

The  Securities  and  Loans  of  the  Company  we  found  deposited  with  the  Minnesota  Loan  and  Trust  Company,  of  Minneapolis  (Trustee  of  the 
Company),  and  all  the  Loans  made  on  a  basis  not  exceeding  one-half  of  the  values  of  the  respective  properties.  The  delegates  examined  the 
papers  in  every  Loan  made  by  the  Company  since  its  incorporation.  These  papers  consist  of  the  application  for  the  Loan,  an  affidavit  by  the  ap¬ 
plicant  ot  the  value  of  the  property  offered  as  security,  the  valuation  made  by  the  Local  Board,  which  is  composed  of  stockholders  residing  in 
the  immediate  vicinity  of  the  respective  properties  on  which  the  Loan  is  made,  Abstract  of  Title,  Certificate  of  Searches,  Opinion  of  General  and 
Local  Attorneys,  Policy  of  Fire  Insurance,  and  stock  of  borrower,  transferred  to  the  Company,  and  Bond  and  Mortgage  of  the  borrower. 
The  Treasurer’s  account  was  thoroughly  examined  and  found  to  agree  with  the  published  report. 

n/r  oiA  it^rou^  instigation  was  made  of  the  books  of  the  Company’s  Home  Office,  and  found  to  agree  with  the  accompanying  report  as  of 
May  dl,  1890.  (In  said  report  by  words  “Capital  Invested  ”  is  meant  “Capital  invested  in  Loan  Fund..”) 

As  to  the  reputation  of  the  Officers  and  Directors  managing  the  Company,  for  honesty  and  integrity  of  purpose,  none  stand  higher. 

We  found  that  a  large  portion  of  the  stock  of  the  Company  was  held  in  Pennsylvania  and  New  Jersey,  and  asked  that  the  number  of 

‘tors  HP  ItlPfPflfiPn  tn  CPVPtl  Otl/1  f  Vi  rt  +  tvAOBAMW  llift  W'nni  _ TVl A. L1_L  _ A  J  ■%  n  n  tCtl  (1  Q  ^

We  therefore  unanimously  report  that  we  believe  the  United  States  Savings,  Loan  and  Building  Company,  of  St.  Paul,  worthy  of  the 
confidence  of  its  stockholders  and  the  public  generally  ;  that  the  money  and  interests  of  Stockholders  are  carefully  and  profitably  handled.

PHILADELPHIA,  WED’Y.  JULY  30,  1890. 


For  the  convenience  of  members  of  the 
Master  Builders’  Exchange,  we  have  secured 
Box  No.  199  at  that  place,  where  any  communi¬ 
cations  for  publication  may  be  left. 


The  Citizens’s  Municipal  Association  has,  in 
its  fourth  annual  report,  made  a  most  wanton 
and  unjustifiable  attack  upon  an  honorabe  and 
laithful  public  servant,  in  the  person  of  Presi¬ 
dent  of  the  Building  Inspectors  Wm.  J.  Gilling¬ 
ham,  and  we  here  assert  that,  from  personal 
knowledge,  the  charges  cannot  be  substantiated 
in  the  slightest  degree,  as  the  report,  submitted 
two  years  since  to  City  Councils  upon  the  ques7 
tion  of  allowing  frame  buildings  to  be  erected, 
completely  and  unqualifiedly  exnonerated  the 
above  named  gentleman  from  any  blame  in  the 
matter.  In  the  face  of  the  record  in  this  mat¬ 
ter,  part  of  which  is  made  by  themselves,  these 
gentlemen  endeavor  to  injure  the  official  integ¬ 
rity  of  Mr.  Gillingham,  whose  abilility  and  prac¬ 
tical  knowledge  of  what  is  required  in  the  exe¬ 
cution  of  the  laws  pertaining  to  the  erection  of 
any  and  all  kinds  of  buildings,  very  justly 
placed  him  in  the  position  he  now  fills.  In 
order  to  find  fault,  these  wiseacres  should  delve 
deeper  and  strike  those  who  make  the  laws, 
and,  by  special  ordinance,  grant  authority  to 
construct  frame  structures  before  and  since  the 
investigation  alluded  to  above,  if  they  will  con¬ 
fine  their  rage  and  spend  it  in  the  proper  direc¬ 
tion,  the  innocent  will  not  suffer  as  in  this  case. 


An  Investigating  Committee  that  Se¬ 
verely  Investigated.— At  the  annual  meet¬ 
ing  of  the  stockholders  of  the  United  States 
Savings,  Loan  and  Building  Company,  held  at 
St.  Paul,  Minn.,  on  June  12,  1890,  the  Eastern 
stockholders,  with  the  view  of  finding  out  for 
themselves  the  true  financial  status  of  the  com¬ 
pany,  its  methods  of  doing  business,  as  well  as 
the  character,  integrity  and  business  standing  of 
the  officers  of  the  company,  and  the  members  of 
its  Board  of  Directors,  selected  eighteen  promi- 
neut  business  men  from  as  many  towns  and 
cities  in  Pennsylvania  and  New  Jersey,  and  de¬ 
frayed  their  expenses  to  St.  Paul,  as  a  commit¬ 


tee  of  investigation,  with  instructions  to  inves¬ 
tigate  in  the  fullest  scope  and  meaning  of  the 
word.  Upon  the  arrival  of  these  eighteen  re¬ 
presentatives  of  the  Eastern  stockholders,  they 
immediatly  proceeded  to  business  by  appointing 
from  their  number  a  committee  for  each  depart¬ 
ment,  with  the  view  of  probing  into  the  minut¬ 
est  detail,  in  ©rder  that  their  report  might  not 
only  be  satisfactory  to  the  stockholders,  but 
that  the  company  might  stand  or  fall  upon  the 
result  of  the  investigation. 

An  expert  accountant,  from  Minneapolis,  was 
engaged  by  the  committee,  and  a  most  thorough 
and  searching  investigation  was  made  as  to 
every  account,  every  investment,  every  paper 
connected  with  the  business  of  the  institution 
and  the  character  of  every  officer,  clerk  and 
employee.  In  fact,  the  investigation,  it  is  said, 
was  of  that  cold-blooded,  unsentimental  charac¬ 
ter  that  the  least  short-comings  of  either  com¬ 
pany  or  officers  would  have  been  unearthed  if 
there  were  any.
